Suhana Khan, daughter of Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan, recently shared insights into her upcoming debut film "The Archies" and her personal views on relationships.
In the film, Suhana portrays the iconic character Veronica Lodge from the popular Archies Comics, in a Netflix adaptation directed by Zoya Akhtar.
HERE'S WHAT SHE SAID
Talking to Vogue India, Suhana was asked how Veronica would react if she discovered her boyfriend flirting with other girls online.
Suhana, channeling Veronica's confident persona, replied, "Veronica’s already got a long list of boys chasing after her. She’s going to be texting other boys herself."
However, Suhana clarified that her real-life approach to relationships differs from Veronica's carefree attitude.
She candidly stated, "I would dump him coz I'm the type of girl who strictly likes a one-woman man." This revelation showcases Suhana's belief in loyalty and commitment.
