Kirti Kulhari Is Moving Away From Mumbai, No Plans To Quit Acting

In the social media post, she shared that she would name her new abode Kantara, which she has taken from the popular Kannada film of the same name.

Actor Kriti Kulhari recently created a buzz when a video of her constructing a new house in the woods surfaced online. Soon after that, many assumed that she is moving away from Mumbai and Bollywood. The actor clears the air and stated that there is no such plans.

 “I don’t have to quit one thing to have something else. I’m very much going to be acting and producing (films) as well. And I’m also going to have a life for myself that I truly wish for. The plan is to move out of Mumbai in the next couple of years," she tells HT.

However, the actor will think about the practicality of the situation when the right time comes, as her work will “always keep me connected with Mumbai”.

The 37-year-old also reveals that the idea sprouted around five years ago while she was on a trip to Goa.

“I realised I was getting a little tired of city life. Mumbai is beautiful, but this city makes life feel like a struggle. No matter which strata [of the society] you belong to, or how much you earn, the living conditions are not the most exciting and it ends up becoming more of surviving in the city. I just got quite fascinated with the idea of living outside of Mumbai,” shares the actor, adding that she was introduced to this beautiful location called Vaara, situated about 100 kilometres on the Western Express Highway going towards Gujarat which she bought for the construction for her new house.

In the social media post, she shared that she would name her new abode Kantara, which she has taken from the popular Kannada film of the same name. She reasons, “I was quite intrigued by what the name means -- a mystical forest. That’s beautiful. And people in that film live life in a very simple way, which is also my ideology. I’ve been working on the design [for the house] for the last one and a half years and finally, I’m set for the construction."
