Kriti Kharbanda

“There's no better feeling than being independent and doing for yourself.”

“People don't come to the theatres to watch a kiss. It's the story that appeals to them.”

“When I started playing tennis in Class V, I used to be the only girl on the court along with 20-odd boys. So, I am used to being in the company of boys. In fact, I have very few girlfriends, and even my besties are boys; I find it much easier to get along with them.”

“If there's garbage in one's head, that's what will come out.”

“Today, there is not one Hindi movie which doesn't have a kissing scene.”

“I think women - or human beings, for that matter - are vulnerable. It's your vulnerability that makes you beautiful and stronger in your own way. Because then you're more accepting to newer things.”

“I don't think there's any space for any negativity or insecurity on the set of 'Housefull 4.' It feels like a big, crazy family.”

“It was nothing less than a dream come true shooting with Farah Khan.”

“Let's make it clear: women are sexier than men. They are a prettier gender than their male counterparts. And then, if a woman is comfortable showing her mid-riff on-screen, what is the other's problem? Why does she face body shaming? Does a man face the same while going shirtless?”

“I will not leave my South films for a Hindi film. I want to be sincere to my South film makers and commitments. Only if my dates are not clashing with any of my South films will I do Hindi films.”

“Initially, I was scared of living alone in a big city like Mumbai, which is nothing like Bangalore. I'm more comfortable now; it feels like a home away from home.”

“Why do women have to face comments like, 'You are wearing short clothes; you are alluring and inviting men?'”

“You discover who you truly are only when you live alone.”

“I used to be a conscious person in terms of dressing, and I wasn't comfortable with my body, so I wouldn't dress in a certain way. Now I am comfortable, and nothing bothers me. Once you are comfortable, everything starts looking good.”

“Comedy is not an easy genre.”

“When I did a scene with Dharam sir for the first time, I actually cried!”

“I feel that bad people exist everywhere. I've always maintained that it is not the industry that is good or bad: it's the people.”

“The only Bollywood dream I have is to meet Shah Rukh Khan once.”

“Direction is always on my wish list.”

“I've lost count of the number of saris I have. I can assure you that you will never catch me repeating a style of sari or a blouse ever. I love wearing them, and I have a sari for every occasion.”
