Krystle D’Souza recently opened up about reports suggesting she took over Tamannaah Bhatia’s part in the Dhurandhar song, Shararat. Speaking to IANS, Krystle attributed the opportunity to destiny and expressed admiration for Tamannaah’s talent and beauty.
On Destiny and Opportunity
Krystle said, “What’s meant to be, will be.” When asked about Tamannaah Bhatia not being selected, she added:
“I had no idea about all this, but I mean, she’s amazing, she’s beautiful, and she’s so good at what she does. More power to her, you know—what’s written in someone’s destiny, they receive. I feel like this was meant for me; it was meant for Ayesha, and we got it. But that doesn’t take away from how beautiful Tamannaah is or what a great performer she is.”
She further noted, “Maybe she would have added her own spark to a song, she brings her own aura, her own limelight, and I think that’s wonderful. I feel proud of every woman who is doing so well, and I’d love to see more women deliver amazing, crazy performances and support one another.”
