Kriti Sanon: You can’t be cautious and still move ahead in career

New Delhi, Feb 25 Kriti Sanon has a packed year ahead, with five films scheduled to release. Her projects are at different stages of production, boast of either big production houses or new genres or high expectations from fans owing to commercial value.

Over the next few months, she will be seen in ‘Bachchan Pandey’, ‘Mimi’, ‘Adipurush’, ‘Bhediya’ and ‘Ganpath’. The varied assortment, you would think, would weigh her down with pressure, however, Kriti says she has no time for pressure, or be scared.

Speaking about the same, Kriti said, “I don’t think you can be scared and cautious and still move ahead in your career. Fear pulls you back. Once I know why I am doing a project, there is no fear. You like the film, the storyline, the scene. You know you are doing something slightly different. Ok, it can be experimental but thats your reason for doing it then.”

“I believe in all the films I am doing right now. Beyond that, my job is to do my part well and work hard for it. The rest is not really in my hands. I don’t want to take the pressure of ‘oh what if this goes wrong?’ I would rather think. ‘what if all of them go right!'” shared Kriti, who had made her Bollywood debut with the 2014 film ‘Heropanti’.

Over the past seven-odd years, Kriti has been noticed for her roles, particularly ‘Dilwale’, ‘Raabta’, ‘Bareilly Ki Barfi’, ‘Luka Chuppi’, and ‘Panipat’. Her upcoming films are a mixed bag, too.

As for Kriti’s upcoming films, ‘Mimi’ is a heroine-centric film about surrogacy, ‘Bachchan Pandey’ is a commercial entertainer co-starring Akshay Kumar, ‘Bhediya’ takes her to the zone of supernatural horror with Varun Dhawan. In ‘Ganpath’, co-starring Tiger Shroff she engages in heavy-duty action. While ‘Hum Do Hamare Do’ co-stars Rajkummar Rao and is a social comedy-drama and ‘Adipurush’ is a historical action drama with Prabhas and Saif Ali Khan.

“Would I love to do more such films (as ‘Mimi’)? Yes, I would. But would I be looking for only this? No. I feel for me it’s not only about what I am doing, it is about a project that excites you. I feel like you have to go beyond how many scenes I have and go more into how good the character is,” Kriti said.
