She will be seen performing at the awards gala night on Sunday with Arjun.
“I am doing a medley of our songs. My songs and then Arjun’s songs. It’s a nice mixture of the two and I feel like it’s great when a performance has a story to it… Ours does. I get to do the nakhras, dancing, expressions and everything. I am performing on Ik vaari aa, Main tera boyfriend and Tukur tukur,” she said.
When it comes to Kriti’s filmography, she has featured in films of a different genres from masala entertainers like Dilwale to a slice-of-life film such as Bareilly Ki Barfi.
“There are two separate genres and both have their audiences. You will see masala films also doing well… But a content-driven film might be loved a lot more at times because of the different stories it gives the audiences and the story that stays with you… We do have an audience who wants to see a typical Bollywood film which the industry is known for.”
