Pulkit Samrat reveals how wife Kriti Kharbanda turned every 'Glory' bruise into strength

Pulkit Samrat shares how wife Kriti Kharbanda's support was crucial during "Glory" filming.

"While I was in the ring, you held the ropes outside! - Pulkit Samrat"

Mumbai, May 16

Actor Pulkit Samrat opened up about the emotional and physical challenges he faced while working on his film “Glory.”

The actor revealed how his wife, actress Kriti Kharbanda, stood by him as a pillar of strength, helping him overcome every bruise and hardship that came his way. On Friday, the ‘Fukrey’ actor took to his Instagram and shared a series of photos from the last day of shooting. In the images, Pulkit is seen cutting a cake to celebrate wrapping up the shoot of “Glory.” He also posed with the film’s cast and crew.

Alongside it, Samrat penned a heartfelt note where he described the role not just as a job, but as a transformative experience — calling it “soul surgery.” From early morning shoots in the cold of Punjab to grueling fight scenes that pushed him to his limits, Pulkit revealed that he poured every ounce of effort and passion into bringing the character Ravi to life. The actor also expressed deep gratitude to the film’s director, Karan Anshuman, and the entire team for their dedication, support, and pushing him to rise through every challenge. The ‘Sanam Re’ actor also mentioned his wife, Kriti Kharbanda, whom he credits as his strongest support system.

An excerpt from his caption reads, “Glory wraps… but the fire doesn’t!! What started as a role became a ritual. I bled, bruised, broke.. and somewhere between fists and fatigue, I found Ravi! This wasn’t a shoot. It was soul surgery!! 5AM call times in Punjab’s cold.. Rounds that didn’t stop at ‘cut’.. Sweat in every frame.. Soul in every second! To the captain of this storm.. Karan Anshuman, thank you for throwing me into the fire and waiting till I rose.. @krnx And to my beautiful wife.. @kriti.kharbanda While I was in the ring, you held the ropes outside! You took every bruise I brought home and covered it with strength.. You were my breath between rounds.. I love you!! Ravi’s not done.. He’s just started!! Milte hain Netflix pe! Jald!!#glory.”

On a related note, “Glory” is a gripping sports crime drama that marks Pulkit Samrat’s first venture into the OTT space. In this intense series, he portrays a boxer navigating a tough journey. Directed by Karan Anshuman and Karmanya Ahuja and produced by Atomic Films, the show also features Divyenndu and Suvinder Vicky in key roles.

"Soul surgery" - what a powerful way to describe acting! Pulkit has grown so much as an actor since Fukrey days. Indian cinema needs more performers who are willing to go through this kind of transformation for their roles.

While I appreciate their dedication, I hope filmmakers also ensure proper safety measures during such intense shoots. Our film industry sometimes glamorizes unnecessary suffering. Health should come first, even for art.

Pulkit-Kriti are becoming one of Bollywood's most grounded couples. No unnecessary drama, just pure support for each other's careers. More power to them! Also excited to see Divyenndu in this - he's such an underrated actor.

The caption gave me goosebumps! ❤️ It's refreshing to see a man openly appreciating his wife's emotional labor. In our culture, we often take such support for granted. Hope Glory gets all the success it deserves!
