Kriti Sanon extended warm birthday wishes to ‘Mimi’ director Laxman Utekar, calling him “incredibly talented with the purest heart ever.”

She wrote, “Happy Birthday Laxman sir! May you always shine and stay happy! Your Mimi misses working with you! Cannot wait for chhaava.”

Kriti starred in ‘Mimi’, a film about a young woman who becomes a surrogate mother, facing unexpected challenges when the biological parents back out. Her performance in the film earned her a National Award.

Looking ahead, Kriti will appear in the crime thriller ‘Do Patti’ alongside Kajol. Directed by Shashanka Chaturvedi, the film promises a suspense-filled adventure set in the hills of North India. ‘Do Patti’ marks Kriti’s debut as a producer and her second collaboration with Kajol after ‘Dilwale’. The release date for ‘Do Patti’ is yet to be announced.
