Mumbai: Actress Kriti Sanon made her debut in the Hindi film industry five years ago with Heropanti has never looked back since. Last year, she featured in the multi-starrer biggie Housefull 4 with Akshay Kumar, and also starred in the multiplex super hit Lukka Chuppi opposite Kartik Aaryan. Her two other films in 2018, Panipat and Arjun Patiala, may have fared below expectations but her performances were applauded.
Kriti feels she is evolving as an actor.
“I have definitely evolved as an actor over the years. I had no training in any filmmaking course, and I don’t have a film background. Whatever I have learned is on the job. My acting process is very organic and spontaneous but it does require a bit of homework. There’s no fixed formula. One should be able to understand his or her craft better, and figure out what’s working and what’s not. Or, one needs to work by hit and trial or think of how else you can surprise the audience. All these things keep me growing,” Kriti stated.
Kriti also believes in analysing her work. “When it comes to my performance I am very much critical about it. I analyse my performances and see what went wrong or right. I feel the day I really get happy or satisfied then my mind will become stagnant. That’s what I don’t want. I have learned from mistakes and by doing this, I feel I have broadened my horizon,” asserted Kriti.
Not only this, the 29-year-old is now open to do more risky and challenging roles. And this realisation came to her a little more after portraying the role of ‘Parvati Bai’ in Ashutosh Gowariker’s Panipat.
“Roles like Parvati Bai encourage you and give you the confidence of doing something different. It was not easy for me to essay that character because it was based on a real person who is an important figure of our history. I am fortunate that I got the chance to do that role and I feel I am more confident to take risks now and surprise people, and myself too,” Kriti stated.
In 2020, Kriti is all set to woo her fans with the roles she has never done before on screen. She will be seen playing a surrogate mother in Mimi, and is also a part of Akshay Kumar’s Bachchan Pandey.
