Converting Kotlin's KClass to regular Class in Java

I am trying call a regular Java method in a Java code as follows:

public <T> T proxy(KClass<T> kClass) { 
    // unfortunately nothing like getJavaClass() exists
    return (T) proxy(kClass.getJavaClass()); 
}

public <T> T proxy(Class<T> jClass) {
    return (T) context.getBean(jClass);
}

In Kotlin, you can call .java on each KClass. This is not the case here and I am unable to extract the Java Class object from KClass. Is there a way to do it?

EDIT: This is trivial in Kotlin, but I am looking for solution in Java code.
