Kriti Sanon feels privileged to have the basics sorted amid lockdown

Kriti Sanon is one of the busiest Bollywood actresses from the current crop. In 2019, she starred in four films and did special appearances in two high-profile movies. When asked if she is missing work amid the Coronavirus lockdown, the actress nods in affirmation.

“For the first few days, I was chilling but now, I am missing work badly. Now, it feels like time is just passing by but people are not living the life,” the actress tells a popular publication.


After tasting huge success with such movies as Luka Chuppi and Housefull 4 in 2019, Kriti Sanon had pinned a lot of hopes on 2020. “But I guess the year will be a skip, blur in our calendars. None of us were prepared for this. But when I see and hear about what so many people are going through, I feel extremely privileged to have a house and my family around,” says the actress.

Sanon, who is not much of a reader, has started devoting some time to books, apart from helping the family with cooking and cleaning. “I have read Ikigai, and now, I am reading The Kite Runner. I am also watching shows, films which I had missed out on such as How To Get Away with Murder, The Stranger, Money Heist, Shutter Island and Bala,” she signs off.

Last seen in Ashutosh Gowariker’s historical drama Panipat (2019), Kriti Sanon next stars in Maddock Films’ Mimi. Helmed by filmmaker Laxman Utekar, the movie is a remake of the National Award winning 2011 Marathi film Mala Aai Vhhaychy! Apart from Sanon, Mimi also features Pankaj Tripathi, Sai Tamhankar, Manoj Pahwa and Supriya Pathak in important roles.
