Kritika Kamra on dealing with fame and online negativity
In an interview with News18, Kritika had also spoken about handling the attention and criticism that come with being a public figure. She said that, in her experience, the positive response from audiences outweighed the negativity on her social media pages.“I’m not bothered by it, to be honest. Overwhelmingly, there is more love than negativity, at least on my pages. It’s not like I can monitor myself for my views or my behaviour. I don’t know if I can alter myself for perception. I am who I am. And some people are going to like me and some people are going to agree with me and some are not going to like. And that’s just how life also is,” she said.Her remarks reflect her approach to public scrutiny, with the actor suggesting that she does not want to change her views or behaviour simply to manage how others perceive her.

The actor is set to headline ‘Dumbbell’, an upcoming drama directed by debutant Pushaan Mukherjee, who has previously worked as a writer on ‘Abhay’, the Kunal Kemmu-starrer. The film is expected to explore a different space for Kritika, although details of its storyline remain under wraps. Shooting was reported to be scheduled to begin in June.Kritika is also set to reprise her role as Gulrukh in the second season of ‘Matka King’. In the series, she plays a wealthy South Bombay woman whose association with Brij Bhatti, portrayed by Vijay Varma, draws her into the world of matka gambling.Speaking to Mid-Day about the character, Kritika explained why she is drawn to women who are layered and difficult to categorise.“I’ve always been drawn to women who have contradictions and don’t fit neatly into a box. That’s something I recognise in Gulrukh as well. She has vulnerability, ambition, intelligence, and strength. That complexity makes her so compelling to me,” she said.The actor has also indicated that Gulrukh’s journey will evolve in the next season, with the character gaining a stronger sense of agency and a clearer understanding of what she wants. Further plot details and a release date for ‘Matka King 2’ have yet to be announced.
