Nimrat Kaur reveals she missed out on opportunities as many thought she had moved to Los Angeles: 'They also felt that I wouldn't want to do certain kinds of films'
Nimrat Kaur
recently expressed concern over a long-standing misunderstanding that she had permanently relocated to
Los Angeles
, which she believes may have contributed to a slowdown in the work that came her way.
Nimrat on less opportunities
In an interview with India Today,
Nimrat
addressed the misunderstanding and took responsibility for the false impression. She had assumed that people knew she was based in India, but many believed she had moved to LA. Even though she enjoys working abroad, living in a foreign country is not something she could ever imagine. 'They also felt that I wouldn't want to do certain kinds of films, and I always wondered where these assumptions came from. Fortunately, I have been able to do work that suits me, and I feel grateful and lucky nonetheless,' she explained.

Nimrat admitted that while critical success is satisfying, the unpredictability of work opportunities is a more pressing concern. She highlighted the challenges faced by many talented actors struggling to find work, stressing that the entertainment industry, like any other profession, involves financial responsibilities such as paying rent and supporting families.
She pointed out that when the market slows down, budgets are reduced, and projects get delayed, impacting livelihoods. For her, the real concern lies in the lack of consistent work and content creation, which directly affects those who have passionately chosen this unconventional career path. According to her,
box office failures
are a secondary worry compared to the broader issue of underemployment in the industry.

‘Maalik' Day 1 box office: Rajkummar Rao starrer off to a modest start
Rajkummar Rao's Maalik is off to a modest start at the box office. The gangster drama, directed by Pulkit, hit the screens on July 11, 2025. According to the Hindi movie collected ₹3.8 crore on the opening day. The earnings pale in comparison with the result of Rao's previous movie, Bhool Chuk Maaf. The Karan Sharma directorial, also starring Wamiqa Gabbi, earned ₹7 crore on its first day. Prosenjit Chatterjee, Manushi Chhillar, Saurabh Sachdeva, Saurabh Shukla, Anshumaan Pushkar, Swanand Kirkire, Rajendra Gupta and Baljinder Kaur are the other actors in the movie. Written by Jyotsana Nath and Pulkit, Maalik revolves around gangsters in the socio-politically charged fields of Uttar Pradesh in the 1980s. The movie opened to mixed reviews from critics and fans alike. The Hindu review of the film said, 'The pacing is problematic, the editing is uneven, and the narrative contrivances are left uncovered. The set pieces are gripping, but their tails sag.

At 152 minutes, the picture gets pixellated, and one gets piqued. However, the climax featuring a dancing Prosenjit and a scowling Raj once again injects adrenaline.'
