Kriti Sanon made a grand Bollywood debut in 'Heropanti' opposite Tiger Shroff. In her second film, Kriti played Varun Dhawan's love interest, and in her upcoming film 'Raabta' she will be seen romancing Sushant Singh Rajput.

In an interview with a leading daily, Kriti opened about her experience of working with the three young actors. Talking about Tiger, Kriti said, "Tiger wasn't even a film old when I did 'Heropanti' (2014) with him. He used to call me a 'senior' because I had completed one schedule of a South film. We learnt the basics - how to face the camera and approach a scene -together. He is disciplined and would rehearse for five days before the shoot of a song to get the steps right. And, if we had a morning shoot, he'd wake up at 4 am and go for a run first. He is hungry to do well."

Speaking about Varun, Kriti adds, "It was just my second film, so I was the inexperienced bachcha on that set. He is among the few actors of this generation, who can pull off comedy. We would rehearse lines before every scene and suggest ideas to each other. During a fight sequence, he had to do a flip from a table. He wasn't getting it right and it was also affecting his back, but he did it almost 25 times till he got it right."

Coming to her 'Raabta' co-star Sushant, Kriti concludes, "Sushant is a methodical actor. He prepares pages of flow charts with details of the character he is playing. I have never seen anyone do this He will do a thousand things to prepare and make himself believe that he is that character. For 'Raabta', he suggested that they leave one blank page after every page of the script. My blank pages were as it is and his blank pages were full. But the most amazing aspect about him is that despite all the preparation, he doesn't lose his spontaneity."
