The Kriti Sanon & Varun Sharma partnership
From Dilwale (2015) to Arjun Patiala (2019). It started with Dilwale (2015).
The shape of the work
Kriti Sanon acted in every film; Varun Sharma acted in all of them. Strictly Hindi cinema — they never crossed industries together.
Partnership facts
- Kriti Sanon and Varun Sharma first met on the set of Dilwale (2015), but they barely had any scenes together. Their real partnership started when they were cast as a couple in Raabta (2017) — a pairing that surprised even them, since Varun was known for comic roles and Kriti for romantic leads.
- In Arjun Patiala (2019), Varun Sharma’s deadpan comic timing let Kriti Sanon play the straight woman — she didn’t have to be funny, just react. That contrast made their scenes land harder than either could alone.
- During the shoot of Raabta (2017), Kriti and Varun developed a running joke where they’d text each other fake dramatic dialogues from the film in the middle of the night. Varun later said it helped them stay loose during the heavy romantic scenes.
- "Varun is the only co-star who made me laugh so hard we had to cut the shot. He’d do something stupid, and I’d just lose it." — Kriti Sanon, in a 2019 interview about Arjun Patiala.
- Arjun Patiala (2019) was a box office hit, but more importantly, it convinced producers that Kriti could carry a comedy — leading directly to her being cast in the female-led comedy Mimi (2021), which won her a National Award.
