Bollywood's vivacious star Kriti Sanon is the "outsider" in Bollywood who changed the wave in her favour without a bloodline or godfather. She is happy that people believed in her.
 
As we all know that, the Raabta star has only worked in projects that are either backed by big production houses, have a good script or are studded with big names. She feels that while she took baby steps as she navigated her way in the industry, her patience has paid off.
 
Speaking to a media source, Kriti talks about how her life changed when she had moved from suburban Delhi to Mumbai's tinsel world.
 
"I took baby steps. I was not running very fast," tells Kriti, and she continues: "When you come into the industry, there is not so much that you know. You have a set of managers and agencies that tell you what is good and what is not. I have always been very opinionated, to an extend that sometimes my managers have gotten irritated because I have a strong mind and I end up not listening to them."
 
She reveals further that while there was a lot of anxiety in her before the big debut happened, she now knows that the dilemma will always resurface before every release. She reveals "Even when I did my first film, there was a lot of restlessness before release. I was in a new city, had done B-tech and was coming to a city where I didn't know anybody. It does get restless and insecure on whether it will happen or not. At that time, it's important that to find one or two people, like I did with my agency, who believe in you. They told me to wait and not be in a hurry because the first film is very important. My patience paid off."
 
"Post 'Dilwale', after a point, I was craving to act but I was not getting that space. I am very ambitious as a person, I am very hungry as an actor. I am always driven and I want to do more. I am greedy that way," she tells. "Raabta" gave her the creative satisfaction she was yearning. "When I got 'Raabta', I felt that I really got a platform to explore a character. I went through workshops for the first time and I realised that I enjoyed it a lot. So, from loving, being in front of the camera to actually falling in love with the craft, was a process for me. I eventually realised my method of acting, what works or doesn't work for me. Little things made me grow as an actor. For instance, initially when you start acting you have a tendency of saying dialogue to dialogue and then someone tells you to just break that pattern and talk and not say just the dialogue (on paper)," she reveals further.
