Crew has done well at the box office

There was a phase where I was just very restless: Kriti

I wanted something where I could just show my potential: Kriti

Crew starring Bollywodd actress Kriti Sanon along with other Bollywood veterans such as Tabu and Kareena Kapoor has done exceedingly well at the box office. In a recent interview with Pinkvilla, Kriti opened up about her phase of struggle in Bollywood. “There was a phase where I was just very restless because I knew that I had way more potential than what I could portray in the opportunities that I had in front of me. I wanted something deeper. I wanted something where I could just show my potential as an actor way more. I always say this that as an actor: ‘Aapko jitna ghada milega, utna hi aap bhar sakte ho. Agar aapko chota vessel diya jayega toh usme aap utna hi paani bhar sakte ho. Agar aapko bada diya jayega toh aap aur bhar sakte ho.’ (You can only fill a vessel with as much as it holds. If it’s small, you can only pour in so much water. If it’s big, you can pour in more.) So I was looking for that bada vessel for a very long time (sic),” Kriti said.

Kriti also recollected dealing with intense frustration and competition from those with connections within Bollywood. “I was getting frustrated because I was like, I know I can do it; I know I can kill it, but I don’t have it in front of me. At that point, I was also seeing some new faces, some of them belonging to the film background, coming in having not done anything and getting opportunities that I was like how (sic),” she added.
