She worte, “From a shy, sickly kid always hiding my smile, my face, myself- Behind my famous relatives, my star cast or any one who could take the attention away. A few years ago, my sister got married and I started to realize I couldn’t run from the light anymore. It wasn’t fair to me or my work. So I had to defeat my insecurities and be fair to myself and my work and step into the light. Show up. Own it. It’s been scary, eye-opening, rewarding, humbling and magical. I have now started to know my strength. So to that shy girl I say thanks for showing up, more power to you. Rhea Kapoor, Thank You For Coming.”

'Thank You For Coming', directed by Karan Boolani and written by Radhika Anand and Prashasti Singh, explores themes like female friendship, the challenges single women face, and modern women's pursuit of pleasure and independence.

The film will hit theatres worldwide on October 6th, 2023.
