A biography for Kriti Sanonhasn’t been written yet.
“I started modelling while still studying. I liked doing television commercials and being in front of the camera. Lots of ad directors told me to try for films.”
“I particularly like Shah Rukh Khan's style. He is very laid back and very comfortable with whatever he carries.”
“It's better to focus on one film rather than take up two or three films at the same time.”
“My mom keeps khabar of everything, so I don't feel lonely.”
“People have started recognising me. I can't move around as freely as I used to.”
“I am just a beginner. The two films so far are baby steps. If I develop an attitude, I'll be finished even before I've started. Besides, if I started misbehaving, my folks would give me a tight slap.”
“My career is too short for there to be any turns! But I would say that not everyone is noticed and accepted in their debut films. I was accepted both by the industry and the audience.”
“I auditioned for quite a lot of films. I do not wish to name the films I auditioned for. There were times when I knew I would not be fit for this film, or I would not get this film. Still, I used to audition for it just to get experience... to practice.”
“I wouldn't have taken up modeling as a profession. It was more of a hobby.”
“The moment I lose weight, it shows on my face, and given how sharp my cheek bones are, it doesn't look good.”
“We are all somewhere or the other a little grey, not black and white. We have our imperfections.”
“I think every industry is a male-dominated industry. Whether it is Tollywood or Bollywood or India as a whole, it is male-dominated. We stay in India, and it has been patriarchal society.”
“When I started doing advertisements, I really enjoyed the whole process of shooting, and I realised that I could do the little bit of acting required quite easily. My directors also told me that I have a flair for acting and that I should polish it and try for films. Then I thought I probably had it in me - why not give it a shot?”
“If you don't come from film family, it takes time for people to register you. When you don't come from film family, the connection with the audience takes time to build up; it happens eventually.”
“When I did my first film, I did not understand or speak Telugu.”
“I wasn't the most confident kid in school and college.”
“I would really like it if someone knows me more for a character that I've played. If they call out the character's name instead of mine by mistake, it would be lovely.”
“If you request for a little time to fulfill a commitment, you're accused of being arrogant. I repeat, I've achieved nothing to be arrogant about.”
“There is a slight tomboyish side to me. But I was studious, and I did not bunk classes!”
“After graduating, I began auditioning for films while continuing to model. I did a few fashion shows, ad shoots, and even got a few Bollywood offers, but nothing great.”
