Proud that I’ve no godfather in Bollywood, says Kriti Sanon

TIL Desk Bollywood/ In an industry where star children are lined up for their grand launch into filmdom, actress Kriti Sanon admits her ride in Bollywood would have been easier if she was from a film background, but she is “proud” that she doesn’t have a “godfather”.

Delhi girl Kriti, daughter of a chartered accountant and an associate professor, spoke about her journey on the sidelines of the fourth edition of India Beach Fashion Week 2017 here.

Talking about how having some backing helps, she said: “People would have known me much faster… To register a new face, especially when that face doesn’t come from a film background and you don’t know the surname, it takes a little while for the audience to connect with you.”

“I am quite proud of it, of where I’ve come. I never thought of becoming an actor to where I am right now. I don’t have any particular godfather, who is always there and helping me out. But at the same time, I am making my own mistakes and learning through them,” she said.
