Kriti Kharbanda may be making waves with her intense performance in Rana Naidu 2, but off-screen, she’s as bubbly and unfiltered as ever. In a recent interview, Kriti opened up about her personal connection with the iconic Geet from Jab We Met, revealing that the film was more than just a Bollywood classic—it was a mirror to her own teenage self. “I can talk for six hours straight,” she laughed, “Speaking is my favorite pastime!” Sounds familiar? That’s because it is peak Geet energy.
Recalling her school days, Kriti shared a moment that felt straight out of a movie. “I remember when Jab We Met came out, my friends came running to me after watching the morning show and said, ‘Kriti, we just saw you on screen. Real-life Geet!’” she giggled. What followed was a triple feature in one day—morning buzz, afternoon show with friends, and a night screening with her parents. “I watched it three times in one day because I felt so connected with that character,” she said. And yes, she proudly confessed to having used the line “Aap convince ho gaye ya main aur bolun?” even before the film hit theatres!
While Kriti admits she’s mellowed out over the years—“Now I have become sweet, mature, and delicate”—she doesn’t shy away from owning the “toofan” she once was. It’s this blend of vivacity and vulnerability that fans continue to adore about her. And honestly, it’s refreshing to hear a celeb who not only embraces their quirks but celebrates them.
Professionally, Kriti is turning a new leaf. After winning hearts in Rana Naidu 2, she’s gearing up for Risky Romeo, a noir-tinged love story opposite Sunny Singh. The film promises a darker, edgier version of romance—very different from her real-life Geet days, but a perfect canvas to showcase her range. One thing’s for sure: whether she’s playing a firecracker or a femme fatale, Kriti Kharbanda is just getting started.
