Talking about Adipurush, recently Kriti Sanon opened up about the film debacle and said that she felt ‘deep sadness’ after Adipurush did not work well at the box office and instead faced criticism from the audiences.

“You feel a deep sadness and might even find yourself in tears, wondering what went wrong,” Kriti said as quoted by Indian Express and then added, “The goal is never to hurt anyone’s feelings; the intention behind every project is always positive. However, we must face the reality that sometimes things just don’t click, and it’s crucial to learn from these experiences.”
