MUMBAI: Kriti Sanon is on a roll and is making her mark on Bollywood with her recent performances. Her movies like Lukka Chuppi and Housefull 4 were box-office hits, and she has an amazing line-up for 2020 and 2021.

The actress will be putting on 15 kilos for her new 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 the best feature film in Marathi in 2011.

Kriti said the film is close to her heart, and she wants to give her best. For her, putting on weight is actually challenging as it’s very new for her body and she will have to fight her metabolism and increase her calorie intake to gain that much weight in a short time. But she is excited for the transformation.

She wants to give the role everything, which means she won’t be signing any other movie.

Mimi also features actors Sai Tamhankar and Pankaj Tripathi in key roles.

Apart from this, Kriti will be seen in Akshay Kumar starrer Bacchan Pandey, which is all set for a December 2020 release. She was recently offered Salman Khan’s 2021 Eid release Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali.
