Kriti Sanon had a thriving modelling career before she entered the acting industry. In a recent interview, she looked back at her modelling days and recalled her very first ramp walk. Sanon was an engineering student when she took up modelling assignments. She fit the criteria because of her height, and decided to do it.

Sanon said, “When I did my first ramp show, I remember I messed up somewhere in the choreography and the choreographer was very rude to me. She screamed at me in front of some 20 models at the end of the show. Whenever someone scolds me, I can just start crying like this.”

She added, “So, I remember sitting in an auto and the moment I sat, I started crying. I went back home and I cried to my mother. My mother was like, ‘I don’t know if this profession is for you. I don’t. You need to be emotionally way stronger, you need to be a thick-skinned person and you need to be a lot more confident than you are. And I think confidence is something that I gained with time.”

On the work front, Kriti was recently seen in Laxman Utekar’s ‘Mimi’ . She has a number of projects including Farhad Samji’s ‘Bachchan Pandey’, Amar Kaushik’s horror-comedy ‘Bhediya’, and Om Raut’s adaptation of the Mahabharata titled ‘Adipurush.’
