Kriti Kharbanda completes 15 years in cinema
Actress Kriti Kharbanda has successfully completed 15 years in cinema and is looking forward to entertain her fans for many more years to come. The actress, who made her Kannada debut with none other than KGF star Yash and everyone’s favourite ‘Rocky Bhai’ in blockbuster movie ‘Googly’, shared an interesting story about the release of her film.
The actress took to her Instagram and penned a long note looking back at her journey in the film industry.
“I’ve spent the last 15 years, pretty much the majority of my life, being an actor. What started out as a hobby, as a way to pay the bills and being recognised slowly grew into a passion! A passion that I didn’t even know existed inside of me. Along the way, I grew, as a human being and as an actor. The more I understood the business, the more fascinated I became. I remember the day too, when I made that mental shift,” the actress shared.
She continued, “Today as I mark 15 years of being an actor, I want to share a story with you. I used to run a boutique with my mum since my teenage years. We used to shop, design and spend of a lot time picking up fabrics and what not. So a few days after the release of my kannada movie, GOOGLY, we were out in a mall. I entered the store like I always do, and everything was fine. As I exited I realised there were 100’s of people outside the store. I looked up and noticed people standing around the aisle and staring down at me. I didn’t quite understand what was happening till the crowd started chanting “doctree doctree!” I couldn’t believe my ears and my eyes! I was so overwhelmed, that I held my dad’s arm and said, “parking main chalo pa, we need to leave!” That was the day I realised the power of cinema and our industry. I went from being a teenager, to an actor and eventually into a star all so quickly, I was afraid to blink. Soon after this life changed. 🫶🏻”
“Today I want to take this opportunity to thank me. The younger, naive, trusting, passionate, brave me. I’m here coz of her today. Coz she could have given up, I know she wanted to when things got hard, but she didn’t. She kept going. And I want to thank the me of today. I’m so proud of the person I’ve become and I wouldn’t change a thing about me,” she added.
She ended her post with “Lots of love ❤️”.
