Kriti Sanon will be stepping into the shoes of the iconic character of Sita for Om Raut’s ‘Adipurush’. She recently opened up about the pressure that comes with such characters and the sentiments of people attached.

Spilling the beans on the same, Kriti told a news portal that she is overwhelmed and grateful that she is playing such an iconic character. The role comes with a lot of pressure because they don’t want to portray anything that is not true to the part. According to her, people’s sentiments are attached to the character.

Kriti was also a part of Ashutosh Gowariker’s period drama, ‘Panipat’. Talking about historical films, Kriti reportedly said that when you’re telling a story that is not set in today’s times, you have to keep a check on your body language and dialogue delivery. With Om, the actress feels that she is in safe hands. Kriti added that she likes his clarity on the film, and that he is technically sound. According to her, this is the first time she is shooting a film that demands such extensive chroma work. It is a pan- India film, so she also had to work on her Telugu.

‘Adipurush’ also stars Prabhas in the role of Lord Ram and Saif Ali Khan in the role of Raavan.
