It’s about your faith in the film, not the star you are working with: Kriti
Actor Kriti Kharbanda has her hands full — she is a part of Akshay Kumarstarrer Housefull 4 and is also rumoured to have Pagalpanti with John Abraham and Pulkit Samrat in her kitty. She says while working with big stars is a good thing, it isn’t the only criteria for picking a project.
“I want to do more films. Why would I not want to work with big film stars, who I have looked up to for the longest time? I have no reason to let go of projects which are substantial in terms of my character. Housefull 4 is an opportunity I wouldn’t want to let go for obvious reasons,” Kriti says.
The actor started her Hindi film career with Raaz: Reboot (2016), and went on to star in Guest Iin London and Shaadi Mein Zaroor Aaana (both 2017). Elaborating on why this co-star criteria isn’t fool-proof, she says, “I want to do other films as it’s not always about the star you’re working with, but how much faith you have in the projects which you are approached for. I have never been the person to think ‘oh this is not worth it’.”
“If that’s how people thought, then an Akshay Kumar wouldn’t want to work with me. I am an upcoming actor and I am getting these opportunities, so how can I can be someone to say I will only work with bigger actors?” Kriti adds.
Meanwhile, the actor is juggling a lot of projects in the south as well. We ask her whether she finds it hectic, shuttling between two industries, she says, “Travel has become a big part of my life. Sometimes, I forget which city I am going to be in. On some days, I feel disoriented, literally. I used to find it difficult, but I look at it positively now. I feel blessed to be travelling to different countries, and have so much variation around me in terms of even culture.”
