Disha Patani Shares Her Honest Thoughts On Watching Herself Onscreen: “I Actually Hate It…”

Disha Patani, who rose to fame with MS Dhoni: The Untold Story in 2016, has been adored by fans for her stunning looks, captivating smile, and exceptional dance skills. While audiences love watching her on the big screen, the actress herself has a completely different perspective on seeing her own films.

Disha Patani’s View On Watching Herself Onscreen

Known for her dedication to her craft, Disha has taken on a variety of challenging roles over the years. In 2023, she made her Tamil film debut with Kanguva, starring alongside Suriya. She even described the opportunity as her “lucky break.” Directed by Siva, the film revolves around Francis Theodore, a bounty hunter in 2024, whose mysterious connection to a tribal warrior in 1070 unfolds in an epic tale.

Despite her immense popularity and social media presence, where she stuns fans with glamorous posts, Disha revealed in an interview that she finds it difficult to watch herself onscreen. Speaking with Sidharth Kannan in an interview (via Hindustan Times), she was asked, “There is a perception that Disha Patani is perfect—whether in looks or otherwise. What do you think when you watch yourself onscreen?”

For those unaware, Disha made her acting debut with the Telugu film Loafer in 2015 before becoming a nationwide sensation with her role in MS Dhoni: The Untold Story alongside Sushant Singh Rajput. Since then, she has continued to impress audiences with her performances.

On the professional front, Disha was last seen in Kanguva and Kalki 2898 AD, both released in 2024. Up next, she is reportedly set to star alongside Akshay Kumar in Welcome To The Jungle.
