She recalled instances when she cried after her first photoshoot and her first ramp show, and how she never gave up despite setbacks.<\/p>\n<p class=\"content \">She said, &#8220;It was not an easy journey. There were moments of self-doubt and frustration regarding not getting the opportunities that I wanted. It\u2019s not been like a journey straight to the top; it\u2019s been gradual. I\u2019ve seen my ups and downs. But I\u2019ve also had the quality of not giving up and trying again. My first photo shoot was a disaster. My first ramp show didn\u2019t go well. I came back home crying both times. But the fact that I still went for another show, another photo shoot and another audition, that is what has gotten me here. The urge to learn, the urge not to give up.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Star kids get opportunities way easier&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Kriti also spoke about nepotism and how she believes that while star kids also have to prove themselves\u2014as actors like Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt have done\u2014she agrees that they often get opportunities far more easily than outsiders.<\/p>\n<p class=\"content \">She said, &#8220;Many times you hear you\u2019re being considered for a film and it kind of goes to someone else. Also, the question is not just nepotism. There are many actors who come from film backgrounds who are genuinely talented. Whether it\u2019s Ranbir (Kapoor) or Alia (Bhatt), they\u2019ve proven themselves. They might have gotten opportunities way easier than anyone else but they\u2019ve worked hard and are super talented. The point is when someone gets opportunities for eight or nine years without proving themselves as an actor. That is the only part I find unfair. When you don\u2019t come from a film background, if you don\u2019t prove yourself in the first few years, you\u2019re gone. You\u2019re written off.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Kriti&#8217;s films and career<\/p>\n<p>Over her 12-year-long career, Kriti has proved her mettle time and again. She won the National Award for her performance in Mimi and has starred in successful projects such as Bareilly Ki Barfi, Dilwale, Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya, Crew, and more. She is currently enjoying praise for her performance in Homi Adajania&#8217;s Cocktail 2<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Kriti Sanon was a complete outsider when she began her career in modelling and, after facing many ups&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":510251,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[26501,19862,146,85,46,19864,397,15741],"class_list":["post-510250","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-movies","tag-alia-bhatt","tag-cocktail-2","tag-entertainment","tag-il","tag-israel","tag-kriti-sanon","tag-movies","tag-ranbir-kapoor"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/510250","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=510250"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/510250\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/510251"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=510250"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=510250"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=510250"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
