Mumbai, Apr 24: Bollywood actress Kriti Sanon has said success is a blend of hard work, talent and destiny, while stressing the importance of recognising opportunities and having the courage to take risks.

Reflecting on her journey in the film industry, Kriti said timing and opportunity play a major role, but success also depends on one’s willingness to embrace challenges.

“I do believe in luck and destiny. It is always a combination of hard work, talent and destiny, along with recognising opportunities,” she said.

The actress said opportunities can pass by if one fails to identify them, adding that courage to take the plunge, even into something intimidating, often makes the difference.

She said taking risks and stepping into unfamiliar territory had been an important part of her growth as an actor.

Kriti’s remarks come at a time when she continues to enjoy a successful run, from her National Award-winning performance in Mimi to her recent work in Tere Ishk Mein.

The actress is now gearing up for the release of Cocktail 2, in which she stars alongside Rashmika Mandanna and Shahid Kapoor. The film, a sequel to Cocktail with an entirely new cast, is slated for theatrical release on June 19, 2026.
