Whenever a woman-oriented film is made, people think it’s bashing men: Kriti Sanon

Actor Kriti Sanon is busy promoting her upcoming film ‘Crew’ alongside Kareena Kapoor Khan and Tabu. At the trailer launch in Mumbai recently, she spoke about the stereotypes surrounding a women-centric film but how this film breaks barriers by being a pure comedy. 

Talking to the press, Kriti said, “I feel, jab bhi koi women wali film aati hai, ladkiyan hain, to sab sochte hain ki serious hai bahot, ya phir kuch mudda hoga, ya phir men bashing hogi, all that. Aisa kuch bhi nahi hai as you can see women can do comedy very very well. (I feel when there’s a women-oriented film and it’s about the girls, everyone thinks it’ll be very serious, or tackle with an issue or bash men and all that. But this film does none of that and women can do comedy very well.)”

Calling her experience working with Bebo and Tabu “refreshing,” she said it was different. “We usually get to work with men, it was very refreshing to work with women. These women are so talented, I have admired them for years. We all look up to them in what they bring to the table and for how they’ve reinvented themselves.” Kriti added, “The way this film was written and these characters are, there’s such life and chemistry between these three.” 

‘Crew’ tells the story of three flight attendants. The trailer shows how the airline they work for is bankrupt, and the trio encounters a man with gold bars attached to his chest. The movie also features Diljit Dosanjh and Kapil Sharma in a cameo. Produced by Ekta Kapoor and Rhea Kapoor, ‘Crew’ is slated for release on March 29.
