    Kriti Sanon, in a new interview, opened up on the challenges faced by women in the film industry.

    Kriti Sanon, who debuted in cinema, with Mahesh Babu’s Telugu psychological thriller 1: Nenokkadine (2014), has carved her own space in the film industry. Over the years, the leading lady has proved her acting prowess with films like Bareilly Ki Barfi, Luka Chuppi, Mimi, Bhediya to name a few.

    In a recent interview with Filmfare, Kriti  who completed a decade in showbiz last year, spoke about the challenges faced by female actors. The actress pointed out that films with female protagonists are often seen as smaller productions, and added that this perception needs to be changed.

    The Crew actress said, “Today, the story is the true star of films, and women are opting for stronger roles. However, films with female protagonists are often seen as smaller productions. We need to change that perception. Producers should create grand, visually-stunning scenes with female leads, like those in Pathaan with Shah Rukh Khan, moments that are made for the big screen. Gangubai is a great example, where Mr Bhansali presented the story on a grand scale, invested in the visuals and the film succeeded both critically and commercially.”

    Meanwhile, last year, Kriti made her debut as a producer with the Netflix film Do Patti in which she was also one of the leads alongside Kajol.

    Elaborating on why she chose to venture into production, the actress revealed that while filming Mimi (2021), she became deeply passionate and emotionally attached to the film, wanting to be creatively involved in every aspect of filmmaking.

    “Since entering the industry, I’ve always been curious, absorbing everything from music to editing. After Mimi, I craved more intense and layered roles. I received great scripts like Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya and Crew. But, still sought something deeper. When I met Kanika (Kanika Dhillon), I shared my desire to produce and support films. She had a twin story in mind. After a month, she presented a beautiful five-page story that blended both our ideas. I was moved and immediately on board.”

    Further, when Kriti was asked whether she felt less privileged on the sets of Do Patti because she couldn’t throw star tantrums as she was bankrolling the film, the actress replied, “I never throw tantrums on set and my producers can vouch for that. In fact, I was often exploited, working 16-hour days. Both my co-producer, Kanika Dhillon and I were first-time producers, which meant a lot of learning. Our main focus was to make a good film.”

    While Kriti is yet to officially announce her next project, reports suggest that she will be seen opposite Dhanush in Aanand L Rai’s Tere Ishk Mein.
