In Anubhav Sinha’s Bheed, Kritika Kamra stepped into a gritty, socially charged narrative that mirrored India’s harsh lockdown realities. Her performance as a journalist brought sensitivity and courage to the forefront — a woman unafraid to question systems, yet deeply empathetic towards the suffering of common people. Kritika’s character wasn’t just a witness to injustice; she became the moral compass of the story, showing how empathy and truth-telling are acts of rebellion.

Amazon Prime Video’s Hush Hush showcased Kritika in a darker, psychological thriller setting. Amidst a star-studded ensemble, she held her own as Dolly Dalal, a woman trapped in societal expectations, grappling with her identity, and ultimately reclaiming her agency. Kritika brought both vulnerability and quiet strength to the role, embodying the story’s central theme that every woman hides a truth, and it’s her choice when and how to reveal it.

3. Bambai Meri Jaan

In the crime-drama Bambai Meri Jaan, Kritika portrayed Habiba Kadri, a character that stood out in a world dominated by men and power struggles. As the daughter of a gangster, she brought ferocity and intelligence to the role, proving that she wasn’t a mere bystander to her family’s legacy but an active force within it. Kritika infused Habiba with quiet defiance showing how strength isn’t always loud, but deeply rooted in resilience and conviction.

4. Gyaarah Gyaarah

In Gyaarah Gyaarah, Kritika delved into the world of mystery and time travel, a genre rarely explored by female leads in Indian storytelling. Her character was cerebral, intuitive, and emotionally layered, balancing intellect with heart. Kritika’s performance in this Arjun Varain Singh directorial was yet another reminder of her knack for choosing narratives where women lead from the front, driving the plot rather than orbiting around it.

5. Saare Jahan Se Accha

In Saare Jahan Se Accha, Kritika continues her streak of portraying strong, self-reliant women. While details of her character remain under wraps, early buzz suggests another nuanced performance that celebrates individuality and emotional strength.
