Kriti Sanon has been lauded by both the critics and the masses for her per formance in Mimi. Despite being a comedy, it’s a sensitive film dealing with serious issues like surrogacy and women empowerment. It shows a small-town girl becoming a surrogate mother and later taking care of the child born of that surrogacy. By surrounding Mimi with woke parents and friends, it sends a hugely positive message. The actress poured her heart and soul into the role. It’s not easy for an actor to emote something outside of her experience. It was understandably difficult for Kriti to portray a pregnant woman. She reportedly put on 12 kgs for the role, which was emotionally draining as well. She does outright commercial films but in between makes sure to pick up something which satisfies the performer in her. The critical success of Mimi has shown that her instincts have been proved right yet again. Presenting excerpts from a heart-to-heart chat with the braveheart actor...
