Kriti Sanon gives in to demand, seeks to gain weight
Synopsis
Bollywood actress Kriti Sanon is set to gain 15 kgs, says the film is close to her heart and she wants to give it her best
Actress Kriti Sanon will be putting on 15 kilos for her role in Laxman Utekar-directed film Mimi.
Backed by Dinesh Vijan, Mimi is based on Samruddhi Porey-directed Marathi feature Mala Aai Vhaaychya, which won the National Award for best feature film in Marathi in 2011.
Kriti said the film is close to her heart and she wants to give it her best.
"For me, putting on so many kilos is actually a challenge as it's very new for my body. I have to in a way fight my metabolism and increase my calorie intake to gain that much weight in a short time.
"But I'm excited to see the transformation. It's a role very close to my heart and I want to give it everything I can, even if that means not taking up any other work in the process," the actress said in a statement.
Mimi also features actors Sai Tamhankar and Pankaj Tripathi in key roles.
