While sipping koffee with Karan and Tiger, Kriti shared, “You know my first audition was actually for Student of the Year 1.” When KJo said 'oops', Kriti replied, “No, I was horrible then. So it's fine.” Karan was surprised and said, “Oh you were? Please say it loudly to the camera so I don't get trolled for this, because I don't remember seeing your audition at all.” Kriti revealed that she had not moved to Mumbai and was in Delhi back then. She had just begun her career in modeling when she gave her first ever film audition for the Karan Johar directorial.
