Kriti Kharbanda revealed that her husband, Pulkit Samrat, made one gesture that drew her in even before they began dating. Reactions from netizens are not all the same.
Kriti Kharbanda says that Pulkit Samrat carries sanitary pads and tampons with him at all times
Amid Kriti and Pulkit’s wedding photos, an old video of the Shaadi Mein Zaroor Aana actress has gone viral. Kriti disclosed that Pulkit used to always have tampons and sanitary napkins in his bag during an exchange on the television program The Male Feminist. Giving additional information about Pulkit’s gesture, the actress disclosed:
“The first time I met Pulkit, we were not even friends, we were co-stars, and I remember I got my period, he’s someone who actually carries tampons and sanitary pads in his bag at all times.”
Kriti mentioned how much Pulkit’s habit drew her in. She went on to say that the actor still packs tampons and sanitary pads in his bag. The actress added that she had observed this aspect of Pulkit even before they were romantically involved, so she wasn’t just focusing on it because she was seeing him. Kriti also referred to herself as “blessed” to be surrounded by the right kind of men.
Netizens have mixed reaction to Kriti Kharbanda’s revelations
Recently, Hauterrfly posted this clip from the movie on their Instagram page, and ever since, internet users have been paying it a lot of attention. Others thought Pulkit was dubious, despite a section labelling it as a “green flag.” Someone posted, “He is a guy who carries tampons at all times. That’s a red flag for me.” Another one said, “Maybe I am cynical, but this sounds like a tactic of a manipulative person to seem like a “good guy”. Again maybe I am wrong, but this sounds kind of shady.” A third netizen mentioned, “I’ve literally heard this for the first time. I have never seen a man do that so I couldn’t even possibly imagine something like this being done by a man. It’s really so thoughtful.” Click here.
In the same talk, Kriti Kharbanda discussed an awkward moment when someone asked to take a picture of her. According to the actress, he was standing next to her and had wrapped his arm around her. When Kriti quickly asked the man to move his arm, he instead gave her a pinch and fled. She said that she was shocked by what had happened and that it upsets her greatly when someone touches her without her permission. Kriti elaborated on the incident, saying:
“Ek bar mere saath hua ki kisi ne mere saath photo khichwane ke liye bola, I’ve never spoken this, I said ‘Yeah, sure’ and he came and stood next to me, and he tried to put his arm around me, and I said, ‘Bhaiyya kya kar rahe ho, haath aage karo’ toh usne na mujhe bohot zor se chuti kaati, and I got a bloos clot, and he ran. I didn’t know how to react, I was very shocked and taken aback. It’s so upsetting when someone tries to touch you without your consent.”
