Muscat: Bollywood celebrity Kriti Sanon is in love with Oman.
Photo exclusive: Actress Kriti Sanon likes to 'chill out' at Oman's Jabal Akdhar
“Firstly, the drive from the airport to Alila Jabal Akhdar was amazing. We were taking a lot of videos and a lot of photos all throughout our journey.
“The place is very calm and exotic in its own way. That you can see on that drive with mountains and beautiful houses all along. Later we learned that there are no high buildings in the city, which is very unique,” she told the Times of Oman in an exclusive interview.

“And then when I reached the villa of the hotel, it is so beautiful that I couldn’t stop making Instagram videos,” she said, laughing.
“It is so calm and peaceful and it is far away from the city. I love the villa so much that I wished I had come here with my family as it is so huge. It is a bit too big for me with a personal pool and Jacuzzi.
“Even the food is amazing and I had a great time having all the meals here and I think I have put on weight,” she said.
The engineer-turned actress also said: “I think this place has some great locations for a magazine cover shoot and we have shot in some of the stunning locations here,” she said, adding that she will definitely come back with her family.
Earlier in the day, the actress was spotted in the hills of Jabal Akhdar, where the charming Bollywood star was seen posing in a beautiful traditional dress on Tuesday.
She arrived in Oman from Mumbai on Monday, and is staying at Alila Jabal Akhdar—a haven for adventure travellers, nature lovers and those seeking a retreat from the desert heat.
After beginning her career in modelling, Sanon made her acting debut in a Telugu psychological thriller film called ‘Nenokkadine.’
Her first Bollywood film was Sabbir Khan’s romantic action drama ‘Heropanti’, for which she won the Filmfare Award for Best Female Debut.
In 2015, Sanon starred in the successful romantic action comedy ‘Dilwale’ with Shahrukh Khan and Kajol.
In 2017, she acted in ‘Raabta’ and ‘Bareilly Ki Barfi,’ where she was praised for her acting skills. Kriti’s latest release, ‘Bareilly Ki Barfi,’ is getting a great response, globally.
