Kriti Sanon won a lot of praise for her performance in her last release, Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya. The film co-starring Shahid Kapoor had Kriti playing the role of a humanoid. She’s happy that despite being a robot, which lacks any emotions, she could keep the audience hooked with her antics. While she did win praise from the audience Kriti shares her thoughts on winning recognition for such a character.
She says, “I didn’t actually imagine the kind of response that came in for my performance. I was surprised. Because, even when it comes to awards it (the main category) hardly ever goes to a comic character. Usually, all the intense roles draw attention. That’s because an intense role is what makes you feel like, ‘My God this person made me feel a lot’.
In an earlier chat with us, Kriti opened up about her love for comedy. She had said, “I have always loved comedy. However, comedy doesn’t get enough due because I feel it is not an intense, deep performance and so people don’t consider it a performance. Having said that, making people laugh is the most difficult thing. I have always been looking for an out-and-out comedy film. Also, I feel comedy as a genre isn’t perceived for female actors. There have been very few female actors who have done comedy. There’s Sridevi ma’am, Madhuri (Dixit Nene) ma’am and Juhi Chawla who did comedy. After that I didn’t see too many women actors attempting it. I have enjoyed watching films like Andaz Apna Apna, Chaalbaaz and a film like Queen which was more of a feel-good film with bits of organic comedy in it.”
