The late Meena Kumari’s biopic helmed by Manish Malhotra and featuring Kriti Sanon had gotten into a lot of legal trouble ever since it was announced. While no updates were shared post the initial announcement, there are some latest reports that are making the rounds.
As mentioned on a leading entertainment portal, Kriti Sanon is apparently watching some of the most well-known classics of the diva to grasp Meena Kumari’s mannerisms and onscreen presence better. She has also been reading some of the late actresses’ old interviews.
A close source was quoted, as stating, “Even as she is shooting for Do Patti with Kajol, Kriti is watching Meena Kumari’s notable films, including Baiju Bawra, Sahib Bibi Aur Ghulam and Pakeezah. She is studying her performances and mannerisms to internalise the nuances that made her an icon.”
Furthermore, it was revealed, “Considering the actor’s off-screen life will be an important part of the retelling, Kriti has extensively read her old interviews and biographies, gaining insight into her struggles. They have given her a profound understanding of her personality. This soft prep will continue till mid-September, after which the hard prep, including table reads and workshops, will begin.”
Kriti Sanon has however made no comments as such.
