Kritika Kamra: Actress Kritika Kamra needs no introduction. Over the years, the beautiful diva has not only reinvented herself but has also cemented a strong position in the entertainment industry with her sheer talent and hard work.
Best known for her performances in hit television shows like Kitani Mohabbat Hai, Kuch Toh Log Kahenge, and others, Kritika made her Bollywood debut in 2018 with the film Mitron and since then has done a wide range of work.
She recently appeared in Amazon Prime Video's crime thriller show Bambai Meri Jaan, where she plays the role of a fearless lady gangster, Habiba.

Kritika Kamra on her showbiz journey
During a chat with Filmibeat, Kritika Kamra opened up her heart and described how her showbiz journey has been, emphasising the wait being fruitful. She said, "It's been a really long journey, and I've had to stay very patient throughout it. But I think it's now fruitful. It's really paying off now. All the patience, all the work, and all the time that I had to just sit and wait, that's really changing."
She then added, "And also because I did that to myself. I created these things from my roadmap in the sense key mujhe quality ka hi kam Karna hai aab. I want quality over quantity. I don't care how long I have to wait for the things that I want to do, but I will only do those. And I've been very stubborn about it, and a lot of people don't understand that. A lot of people around me also don't understand that. They definitely don't advise it because it's not a very practical thing to do. But I took those chances."
Further, talking about reaping the benefits of patience and waiting, the diva stated, "Now the kind of makers that I want to work with are putting that belief in me. People are really handing me roles. I mean, I'm earning roles; perhaps there are very important roles in these big shows, and people are very particular about their casting, and they are giving me that responsibility."
"It's nice to see, but yes, it's been a long, long journey, but I think now I have finally reached a place where I am known for the actor that I am and not the medium that I'm working on," she said.
Talking about Bambai Meri Jaan, the 10-episode show can be streamed on Amazon Prime Video. The period crime thriller is directed by Shujaat Saudagar and stars Kay Kay Menon and Avinash Tiwary in the lead roles. The show is produced by Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani's Excel Entertainment.
