Kriti Did Something For The First Time, What's That?

Darpan News Desk IANS, 18 Feb, 2017 02:54 PM
    We have seen actors go to lengths for their roles, pushing the envelope, going out of their comfort zone and doing what is required of them. 
     
    This time Kriti Sanon has done it for her character in Bareilly ki barfi. The actress who has always been a non-smoker had to pick up a cigarette for her role, as the script demanded so. 
     
    She has been committed to her character and hence did not hesitate to go ahead and do this, even though it was not in comfort zone. 
     
    The actress had earlier never even tried smoking in real life, but she just did it a couple of times only on camera for a particular scene in Bareilly ki barfi which required her to do it. 
     
    Kriti confirms and shares, "I was always a non-smoker and I continue to be. I only picked up the cigarette because my character demanded me to."
