When Kriti had denied smoking in real life
Even Kriti herself had clarified that she is not someone who smokes or endorses the habit. However, she was made to smoke for her movie and she hated doing that. As quoted by Deccan Chronicle in 2017, she said, "I have always been anti-smoking. I never wanted to smoke. I did not like it even after doing it. But it was something that I had to do for the character. I didn’t want it to look fake, so I had to do it the right way. I could have opted just to do a mouth fag, but it wouldn’t have looked good on screen. When it comes to smokers, they can easily find out whether a person is actually smoking it or not. There are certain small nuances like how a person is holding a cigarette etc., that can also be spotted easily."
Furthermore, talking about her character in the film who smoked she said, "Smoking is not good for health and should be avoided. I am a non-smoker, but the point we want to make is that girls who smoke, who are fond of body art or break into a jig are not characterless." She added that the society judges women who smoke but they never tag men who smoke as characterless.?
Last seen in Crew, Kriti Sanon will next be seen in?Do Patti, which also stars co-stars Kajol and Shaheer Sheikh.
