While many of her old video is doing the rounds, a video interview which she gave to Manorama News years ago is the talk of the town.
In the show, Nere Chowe she opened up about returning to cinema after her first marriage failed.
“I believe in fate. I am someone who always wanted to settle down after getting married. But having said that, I never expected that it would end up this way. Though in my mind, I wished to stop acting after getting married, when I left, I never publicly said that I won't make a comeback,” Kavya said.
Kavya married Nishal Chandra in 2009 and moved to Kuwait. However, the same year, she filed for divorce and both of them officially parted ways in 2011. Post divorce, she made a comeback and acted in a couple of films.
