Actor Rubina Dilaik is set to participate in Rohit Shetty’s reality show Khatron Ke Khiladi season 15, where she will face her fears once again. Before her return, Rubina opened up about one of the biggest personal struggles she faced in her career and recalled being told that she had a “negative face” and would never be cast as a lead actor.
Rubina shared that she often faced comments about her looks and body during the early years of her career. A director once told her, ‘Your face is so negative, you should do negative roles. I don’t think anybody will cast you in a positive role or as a protagonist.’
Overcoming those insecurities required a lot of self-acceptance and inner strength for Rubina. She revealed that she also wore braces at the time and often questioned whether she was “good enough”. However, it took her years to fully accept herself and understand her unique qualities.
Rubina began her television career with the show Chotti Bahu and gained recognition with her debut itself. She later appeared in shows such as Saas Bina Sasural, Punar Vivah and Devon Ke Dev... Mahadev. However, it was her role in the 2016 show Shakti – Astitva Ke Ehsaas Ki that made her a household name.
