Kriti Kharbanda recalls shooting for 'Guest iin London'

It's a nostalgic day for actress Kriti Kharbanda as her film Guest iin London has completed six years since it was released. Helmed by Ashwni Dhir, the film is a family entertainer which plays on the theme of uninvited guests. Kriti and Kartik Aaryan essay the role of a young couple who are living a comfortable life in London, only until Paresh Rawal and Tanvi Azmi arrive and end up creating havoc in their lives.

Recalling working on the film, Kriti took to Instagram and penned a lengthy note.


"Guest in London! A movie with many firsts! The first time I worked with @panorama_studios :) they welcomed me with open arms and I made so many new friends on this set, whom I can proudly call my friends even today. Ashwini Dhir sir, our director not only gave me the opportunity to act in this film but also share screen space with the greats of our industry. @tanviazmiofficial @pareshrawalofficial," she wrote.

"I had the most fun on set with these two! They're happy souls and it shows. Ah, the things I'd do to go back and relive my time with them! @kartikaaryan from a fab costar to a dear dear friend. We came a long way. We were two passionate, driven, and motivated actors. Always trying to do what's best for the film and for ourselves. From discussing our debuts to our future to our dreams. This journey was so adventurous! @abhishekpathakk thank u for being the shoulder I could cry on! To everyone else I'm unable to mention here, just know that you've genuinely made a difference, and I'm glad our paths crossed," she added.

She also shared several BTS images and videos from the sets of the film.

Kriti made her big screen debut with the Telugu film Boni in 2009. Her first screen appearance in Bollywood was in 2016 with Raaz: Reboot, a horror-thriller by Vikram Bhatt. However, Kirti rose to prominence in the industry after her strong performance in the hit Bollywood film Shaadi Mein Zaroor Aana in 2017.

From Anupama Parameswaran to Samantha Ruth Prabhu: Why the sexist ‘climber’ label follows women who date successful men

Highlights

  • Successful actresses are often accused of choosing relationships for money or status
  • The ‘gold digger’ and ‘climber’ labels can erase women’s own careers and financial independence
  • Anupama Parameswaran, Samantha Ruth Prabhu, Sushmita Sen and Malaika Arora have all faced versions of the same narrative
  • Their responses show how female stars are increasingly refusing to accept the assumption that a relationship must have a financial motive

When a successful woman is linked to a wealthier or more powerful man, the question is often not whether she is happy, in love or making an independent choice. Instead, the conversation quickly turns to what she might gain from the relationship.

That is where the word ‘climber’ becomes revealing. It suggests that a woman is using a relationship to move upwards socially, financially or professionally, reducing a personal choice to a calculated transaction. In Indian celebrity culture, the label often appears alongside accusations of being a ‘gold digger’, particularly when a relationship ends.
