The spotlights of the entertainment world often hide a different reality behind their shimmer. For those born outside its famous families, breaking in can feel like a solo hike up a very steep mountain. Actress Tara Sutaria recently opened up about her own journey, sharing that being an "outsider" in the industry has often been a lonely and tough road.
Tara made her big screen debut in 2019 with the movie Student Of The Year 2. Since then, she has taken on several important projects. Yet, she has also seen the less glamorous side of the industry. She shared that when she first stepped into this world, she had no one to lean on. There was no one to guide her, no family connections in film, and no instant feeling of belonging on set. A paparazzi page, Tahir Jasus, posted about Tara’s interview on Instagram, highlighting her comments.

In a chat with *Times of India*, Tara explained that people from film families already understand how the industry works. They know the unspoken rules, the inside details, and how to build connections. But for someone like her, coming from outside, learning all these things takes a lot of time. It can feel incredibly isolating.
Tara also admitted that her quiet and reserved nature added to her challenges. There were many times, she said, when she couldn’t openly share her feelings with anyone. She often wished someone was there to guide her or offer advice. However, in those moments, she learned to listen to her own inner voice and push forward on her own.
Now, Tara is clear about her priorities. Amidst all the glitz of movies, she has decided to work only on projects that bring her true satisfaction. She is currently preparing for *Awarapan 2*, where she will star alongside Emraan Hashmi. Before this, she appeared in films like *Marjaavaan*, *Ek Villain Returns*, and the online movie *Apurva*. More recently, she was also seen in a music video with Ishaan Khatter.
Beyond her work, Tara’s personal life often makes headlines. She was previously in the news for her relationship with actor Aadar Jain. Now, her name is being linked to Veer Pahariya. However, Tara prefers to stay quiet about these rumors. Instead, she keeps her focus firmly on her acting career.
