Vaani Kapoor (born 23 August 1988)[1] is an Indian actress who works in Hindi films. After completing a bachelor's degree in tourism studies, she made her acting debut with Yash Raj Films' romantic comedy film Shuddh Desi Romance (2013), for which she received the Filmfare Award for Best Female Debut.[2]
After facing criticism for her performances in the company's romantic comedies Aaha Kalyanam (2014) and Befikre (2016), Kapoor took a three-year hiatus. She has since played brief roles of the love interest in action films, such as War (2019), and gained praise for starring as a transgender woman in the romantic comedy Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui (2021).
