Over the years, she didn\u2019t shy away from any character or story that held substance. From comedy to romance to serious drama, she has tried her hand in every genre.<!-- --> In addition to understanding her characters and projects, Kriti Sanon now also understands the importance of \u2018switching off\u2019 in both personal and professional lives. \u201cBefore Mimi and Do Patti, I used to believe that the characters I played never affected me in real life. But those two films made me realise that, even if you think you&#8217;re unaffected, your characters always leave a subconscious impact,\u201d she said in an exclusive interview with us.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"7\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h2>Kriti Sanon advocates taking time off in both personal and professional life<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Highlighting more that playing an intense role leaves an indelible mark, Kriti continued, \u201cSometimes you notice it a week later, sometimes just a few days later, through the way you&#8217;re feeling or reacting. That&#8217;s when I understood how important it is to switch off from your character consciously.\u201d<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"10\"\/><span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"12\"\/>Further, these films taught Kriti to switch off from her personal emotions to remain in character. \u201cAt the same time, it&#8217;s equally important to switch off from your personal life. There have been many instances when I&#8217;ve been emotionally low or dealing with something difficult in my life, yet I&#8217;ve had to shoot for a comedy. That has happened to me quite often,\u201d she added.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"16\"\/><\/p>\n<div data-type=\"in_view\" class=\"  \">\n<div class=\"sQLTU timeline_pollWrapper_as  \" data-scrollga=\"scroll#poll_view\">\n<div>\n<p>Do you believe that playing intense film roles affects an actor mental state?<\/p>\n<div class=\"iN00Z\">\n<div class=\"eG6Oq\" aria-live=\"polite\">\n<div class=\"W30C0\">\n<p>3k+ users shared opinion today<!-- --> <span class=\"vIYbn\"\/><\/p>\n<p>5k+ users already voted today<!-- --> <span class=\"vIYbn\"\/><\/p>\n<p>3k+ users shared opinion today<!-- --> <span class=\"vIYbn\"\/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/polls\/do-you-believe-that-playing-intense-film-roles-affects-an-actor-mental-state\/pollopinions\/133047076.cms?src=articleshow\" class=\"pd_MH\" commonstate=\"[object Object]\" frmappuse=\"1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Share Opinion<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"18\"\/>\u201cAs actors, we&#8217;re constantly tapping into and playing with our emotions, so I believe it&#8217;s essential to take care of your mental and emotional well-being,\u201d she said, before adding, \u201cWhether it&#8217;s meditation, therapy, or anything else that helps you stay balanced, it&#8217;s important to have that support. <!-- -->I meditate on and off, and that&#8217;s something I personally find very helpful.\u201d<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"23\"\/>Kriti Sanon last appeared in \u2018Cocktail 2\u2019 alongside Shahid Kapoor and Rashmika Mandanna.
