The graceful Kriti Sanon with Heropanti, a fruitful introduction film on her CV is on the cusp of showbiz acclaim that point wherein a newcomer starts to addition distinguish inside and outside the business. She is yet to get mobbed, yet individuals are starting to stop her with appeals for photos, which is dependably a decent sign.
“Sometimes when I am in a mall or at the airport, people come to me for photos. Occasionally you do want to be alone, but it’s not possible now. Fans and their admiration is what we work for,” she says sagely.
The business, obviously, has sat up and observed Kriti Sanon notwithstanding the way that a lion’s offer of media’s consideration was given towards her co-star Tiger Shroff, on account of his Bollywood family (he’s performer Jackie Shroff’s child). Maker Sajid Nadiadwala, for one, is certain that she is digging in for the long haul.
On her part she has affectionate memories of her co-star, an amateur himself. “Tiger is very well brought up. He is much disciplined and you can’t help but admire the way he lives his life. He is much focused—to have that sort of will -power at this age is difficult. Sometimes, even if we had a shoot at seven in the morning, he would get up and go for a jog at four a.m.! For me, sleep was more important, so I would continue with my nap. I think both of us were learning and grew together. Doing a workshop before the film really helped. He is quite a shy person so it was only during our 45 -day stint in Patiala that he began to open up. After that he was very chilled out and helpful.”
On the other hand, soon, they are not collaborating for an alternate film. “Sabir sir also wanted us to work together. But I think there should be a gap before you repeat the same pair which is the reason that we have not signed another film together.”
With respect to the ventures she has marked inverse other co-stars, there’s Akshay Kumar’s home creation Singh Is Bling and executives Raj Nidimoru and DK’s next wander titled Farzi inverse Shahid Kapoor. This, other than a couple of different activities she is apparently in talks for, in particular Housefull 3 and Raees, despite the fact that she denies any such advancements, while conceding that she would be excited if such a situation worked out. “Shah Rukh Khan is someone you may get an opportunity to work with once in a lifetime, but nothing of the sort has come up,” she clarifies.
Had not set her sights for a showbiz innings—she prepared as a computer engineer—yet her great looks headed her to a demonstrating profession, before she was spotted and chose for Heropanti. She did be that as it may, cut her teeth in acting by doing a couple of Telugu movies before wandering into Hindi film industry. The performing artist reviews with beguilement, her days of working in a dialect she couldn’t even grasp. “I don’t even understand Telugu. Earlier, when it came to saying my lines, they would tell me to just say 1,2,3,4 and get it dubbed later. But now with sync sound I am expected to learn my lines, so that the lip sync looks correct. The final dubbing is done by a person who knows the language fluently; otherwise the audience will immediately recognize the fact that I am not well versed with the language. Just like you know if a person is unfamiliar with Hindi tries to speak it. I try to understand the meaning of what is being said so that I can emote accordingly.”
For Hindi films, her arrangements are in different divisions she is in no time learning move and preparing for a few activities scenes with hand to hand fighting classes. “I play a dance teacher in Singh Is Bling which is why I need to learn professional dance. I had met Ashvini Yardi and Sajid sir (Nadiadwala for Heropanti) who needed someone who could dance as well as perform action scenes. For action, I guess, taller girls probably work better.”
Interestingly enough, Sanon has solid feelings and a decent feeling of scripts that may function admirably for her. “If the script is strong, the film can’t go wrong. When I hear the script, I react like the audience. If I like the story and want to watch it, I will probably go ahead and sign up especially if my part in it is good. If it feels different, I just go for it.”
The achievement or disappointment of the executive’s prior film does not so much influence her choices and Sanon says she is energized in regards to working in Raj and DK’s Farzi, notwithstanding the disaster of their romcom Happy Ending. “Farzi is a thriller and when I heard the script, I found it very interesting. When I saw the trailer of Happy Ending, I was very excited because it is after a long time that an urban romantic comedy was releasing. There are so many films made about small towns that it has all started looking very similar. And if one of my films doesn’t work then that doesn’t mean that I have no talent. That sort of an attitude is not right. Besides Raj and DK are great directors.”
While that may sound inclined toward urbane smoothness in movies, Sanon is barely opposed to mass performers. Heropanti was gone for a solitary screen demographic an incredible inverse of urbane multiplex moviegoers. “There are different kinds of films I want to watch. I enjoy both kinds of cinemas. There has to be a balance. There are times when I like to watch Rowdy Rathore and Heropanti which are more commercial—even Singh is Bling is a family entertainer, but Farzi is a thriller and is different. My debut film in Telugu was a psychological thriller too, very different from Telugu masala films, so I suppose one has to mix it up.”
It is barely astonishing then that the adolescent performing artist is inspired with Kangana Ranaut’s excursion. “Everyone is doing amazing work although my recent favourite would have to be Queen. Kangana performs exceedingly well in all her films whether it is Gangster or Tanu Weds Manu and now Queen.” However, Sanon shies far from emulating any good example and inclines toward being herself—the quintessential Dilli young lady.
“People do want to see a pretty face but you also need to have a personality. If you are robotic and you can’t really perform, then you won’t last beyond two to three films, as times have changed now. Today girls have substantial roles and you can’t pull that off unless you can perform well of course. I still need to learn and prove myself. You need at least five films to prove that you are exceptionally talented,” opines the performing artist.
That she’s got a keen head on her shoulder; a precious resource in showbiz, is clear from a story from her demonstrating days. Amid the shoot of a TV ad with superstar Aamir Khan, there was a scene that wasn’t going to her effectively. “I said that it seemed very fake. So Aamir said something which holds so true of acting— ‘It will look real only if you do it as though it is the most natural thing to do’. Whenever, I am unable to do a scene, I try to follow his advice!” says Kriti Sanon.
