Kriti Sanon made her debut with the Telugu thriller 1: Nenokkadine in 2014 and stepped into Bollywood the same year with Heropanti. She has featured in films such as Dilwale (2015), Bareilly Ki Barfi (2017), Luka Chuppi and Housefull 4 (2019), Mimi (2021) and Hum Do Hamare Do (2021).

In an interview with Bollywood Bubble, Kriti said, “There were times when I like, got a film, which I’ve spoken about before, not the name, but I got a film which was by big production, very big production but it didn’t have a good enough part. Like she was the only girl, but it was an ensemble (cast). It didn’t have much for me to do and it was a big casting director and she was so sweet but she told me like ‘Do you wanna wait out or do you want to do it?’ And then my manager was also told that ‘I don’t think she can get something better, she should just take it up’.”

Kriti has several films in the pipeline including Adipurush with Prabhas, Bachchan Pandey with Akshay Kumar, Ganapath with Tiger Shroff, Bhediya with Varun Dhawan and Shehzada with Kartik Aaryan. She was last seen in Hum Do Hamare Do.
