Kriti Sanon Calls 2020 The Worst Year Of Her Life, Opens Up About How She Dealt With Negativity And Insensitivity

For Kriti Sanon, the year 2020 was like a nightmare. The year did begin for the Bachchan Pandey actress on a promising note, but went from worse to worst in a matter of few months. This had been the year that tested her, and also the year that the actress was forced to introspect and took to journaling her thoughts.

In an interview with TOI, Kriti revealed, “Honestly, 2020 is probably the worst year of my life. I would just delete the year had it been in my hands. The year began with me being busy with film shoots, post which the lockdown was announced. I was glad that I was in the company of my parents through that phase. They were visiting me in Mumbai for a week, but they ended up staying for nearly a year due to the lockdown. It would have been tough to be alone at home. It is only later that I disconnected and was only active on social media.”

This is also the year that she, and the nation lost Sushant Singh Rajput after he ended his life. Kriti, who was rumoured to be dating the actor back at the time when they shot Raabta, faced much negativity and saw the insensitive side of people. She said, “At one point, there was so much noise around that I didn’t want to be a part of it. It reached a point where people stopped being sensitive, and there was too much negativity around. I didn’t want to be a part of that negativity. I knew what I felt about the situation and I wanted to keep that to myself. I didn’t feel the need to talk to anyone about anything that I was feeling. Also, what you want to say, you can always say it on social media. You can write and express yourself instead of talking out loud.”

The actress also contracted the coronavirus in December. She is glad that it happened after she had finished shoot, but she also revealed that being locked up in one room was the toughest part. 2020 also became the year when she began to journal her thoughts and started maintaining a gratitude journal. “ It will be interesting to look back next year and read what happened last year on a particular day. It’s a nice way to record your memories,” she quipped.

Kriti Sanon has quite a few films lined up for release. She would be seen in Mimi and Bachchan Pandey, and is currently busy shooting for Bhediya. She has also been roped in to play Sita in Om Raut's Adipurush opposite Prabhas and will reunite with her Heropanti co-star Tiger Shroff for Ganapath.
