Exhibit Magazine catches up with her on her love for cinema, cool gadgets, cutting edge technology and her rendezvous with Hollywood hunk Chris Hemsworth. Excerpts from her interview...

I make sure that I do things as and when they are required, I don’t overdose on anything, I am very careful about it and I see to it that it does not reach that level that I have to detox.

Kriti, you’ve had an amazing & exciting journey right from a young age. Tell us about a moment when you thought acting was the real deal for you?

When I did my first film, it was the excitement of entering the world of cinema and working as an actor that made me realize my love for acting and empowered me. I think it happened when I was shooting this Kannada film called Googly and I suddenly felt the magic and I felt like I was bringing a character to life. It was a character that I loved, Dr Swati, and that was the moment I realized this is what I was meant to do. I was not very serious about what I was doing, just like any other 20-year-old would be. But it was that moment when I was playing Dr Swati that I realized that this is what I want to do for the rest of my life!

How was it working with the God of Thunder aka Chris Hemsworth?

It was fun and we had a great lovely video chat. For me, it was an opportunity to have a conversation with whom I admire and look up to as an actor and someone who had made a name for himself and has worked hard to get where he is. He is also supremely handsome so no complaints there!
