Kriti Sanon thought back to a time in her career when she struggled to find producers ready to take a chance on her.
Since her first movie, Heropanti, Kriti Sanon has advanced considerably. In films like Bareilly Ki Barfi, Luka Chuppi, and Panipat, she gave some standout performances. Over the past nine years, her outstanding performances and undeniable charm have enthralled audiences.
Kriti has established herself as one of the most adored actors in the business thanks to a string of successful films. The actress, who made her acting debut nine years ago, opens up about wanting to do more but feeling constrained by her opportunities.
Kriti Sanon thought back to a time in her career when she felt she could have made a bigger impression but struggled to find producers who would take a chance on her. When questioned about those instances, she regarded the experience as challenging yet instructive.
Kriti Sanon said, “When you do not come from a film background, it anyway takes time for people even to know your name. So I wanted them to know my name, and that name to resonate with talent.” The actress confessed that she always ‘craved for validation’, and that came after Bareilly Ki Barfi and Luka Chuppi. She credited Mimi to be one of the breakthrough films in her career.
“I always craved validation as an actor. That started happening with Bareilly Ki Barfi, and then Luka Chuppi did really well. I was taking baby steps in the right direction. Of course, after Mimi, there has been a huge shift, I got my first set of best actor awards. It took eight years for it to happen,” Adipurush actress said.
Kriti Sanon then added how was ‘frustrated’ when she felt she could do better films, but filmmakers were hesitant to take a chance on her. “There were a lot of moments of that… knowing I could do more, but not having the kind of opportunities I wanted on my table. When you come from the outside, you don’t know people, and they don’t know you. It takes a while to make an impact and for people to associate with you. You end up doing the best you can with what you are offered. It may not necessarily be the best thing in the world, but every film has taught me something,” she said.
Kriti, along with Prabhas, Sunny Singh, Saif Ali Khan, is now preparing for Adipurush. She will be appearing in The Crew with Tabu and Kareena Kapoor Khan in another high-profile movie she has in the works.
