Shooting, travelling, and shooting again — Kriti Sanon’s life is all about that. With a host of biggies such as Bachchan Pandey, Bhediya and Ganpath in her kitty, she is of course excited. And it was also recently announced that she will join Prabhas and Saif Ali Khan in Adipurush.

Despite the rise in Coronavirus cases and several restrictions reimposed, including shutting of theatres, Sanon says she would prefer theatrical releases for all her films. “Obviously, as an actor you want the film to reach beyond just the OTT audience. Of course, they are great platforms, and everyone is hooked on to it and the platforms have great content. But as an actor you want it to reach even the ones who don’t really go on these platforms,” says the 30-year-old, whose film Mimi, in which she plays a surrogate mother, is also waiting for a release.

It’s been some time since the film was announced and has been shot. Ask what’s happening on that front, and Sanon says she recently wrapped up work on the last scene. “Mimi as a film needs to reach the masses. It is based on surrogacy, it’s a unique subject and made in a very entertaining manner. It is something that will touch your heart, make you cry, laugh, and leave you with food for thought. It should be watched by more people who are rooted in areas where OTT isn’t watched,” she says.

In fact, it was raining release dates until recently in Bollywood, when the pandemic reared its head again and forced many film releases to be postponed again. “We are very excited for Mimi to release. The times we are in, it’s important for a film like that to get a release. I hope things are normal soon. There are so many films waiting to release. I am hoping Mimi does too, soon, sometime around mid 2021. I don’t know what the producers are deciding. It should get what it deserves,” says Sanon.
