Bollywood actor Kriti Sanon recently opened up about the burnout actors experience when promoting back-to-back films. She explained how the rigorous process of promotions becomes hectic for actors who are constantly on the move. Sharing her own experience, Kriti revealed that she had a breakdown while promoting her film Bhediya. Speaking to Ranveer Allahbadia, Kriti said, "Promotions can be very tiring. I almost had a breakdown when I was promoting Bhediya. That year, I had two or three other releases, so I had already done promotions two or three times before. While promoting Bhediya, we were traveling to different cities back-to-back. We even took a charter at night, jumping cities, sleeping at night, going to another city, doing interviews, and repeating the same things again and again. I wished I could have my answers on a tape recorder. Like, dial 1 for this question and 2 for another. By the end of it, both Varun [Dhawan] and I had memorized each other’s answers." Recounting the moment when she experienced a breakdown, the actor added, "On the last day of promotions, I was supposed to appear on a reality show. I was getting ready in my vanity van, and during some conversation, I started crying. I said, ‘I’m very tired; I can’t do this. I’m exhausted.’ Everyone around me froze. It affects your mental health." Kriti Sanon further elaborated that while acting—the part of her job she loves—doesn’t feel overwhelming, the additional pressures of the film industry often make things hectic for actors. She also admitted that stress sometimes leads her to act rebelliously as a coping mechanism. "Sometimes, I become rebellious. Like, I’ll refuse to attend an award show. Once, I told my stylist I wouldn’t go for a photoshoot, and she said I’d have to buy the outfit if I didn’t go. So, I bought it. Bad mein jaake fatka laga mujhe but. (Later, I realized it made a dent in my pocket, but." Kriti was last seen on screen in Do Patti, where she not only acted but also made her debut as a producer. Released on Netflix, the film marked a milestone in her career as she played a double role for the first time.
