Kriti Sanon & Boman Irani Movies Together List — 3 Films

The shape of the work

Kriti Sanon acted in every film; Boman Irani acted in all of them. Strictly Hindi cinema — they never crossed industries together.

Partnership facts

• Kriti Sanon and Boman Irani first shared screen space in Dilwale (2015), but they barely had a scene together. Their real partnership started on the sets of Welcome to New York (2018), where Boman, playing a frustrated film producer, spent most of his time yelling at Kriti's character. Kriti later said she was nervous acting opposite him because she had grown up watching his comedy.
• In Housefull 4 (2019), Boman Irani played Kriti Sanon's father in one timeline and her comic sidekick in another. The trick? Boman deliberately slowed down his comic timing in the father scenes to let Kriti's deadpan reactions land harder. He told her on set: 'You don't need to be funny. Just be confused. I'll bring the chaos.'
• During the shooting of Welcome to New York (2018), Boman Irani would quietly slip Kriti Sanon handwritten notes after every scene they did together — not feedback, just one-line jokes or observations from the day. Kriti kept all of them in her vanity bag. She still has the first one: 'You made me forget my lines. That's a compliment.'
• Kriti Sanon on Boman Irani, during a 2019 interview: 'He is the only co-star who can make me laugh so hard that the director has to cut. And then he'll look at me with a straight face and say, 'Beta, focus.' I can't win with him.'
• Their pairing in Welcome to New York (2018) — a chaotic comedy where Boman's character keeps trying to sabotage Kriti's — directly inspired the father-daughter comic dynamic in the 2022 film Jugjugg Jeeyo. The writers have admitted in interviews that they watched Welcome to New York to study how to balance a stern father with a witty daughter without making either unlikeable.
