Krystle D'Souza On Her Career Trajectory
Krystle explained that her life “has done a full 360 turn in the past one year.” She highlighted how her career has seen a resurgence after hitting a low point earlier. She said that when Shararat was successful, she thought nothing could be bigger. Then, she won The Traitors 2 alongside Rida Thadani.

How Krystle D'Souza Was Offered Dhurandhar Song
Krystle had told Farah Khan that Shararat was her first item song. She recalled getting a call from casting director Mukesh Chhabra just four days before the song's shoot. Before Shararat, Krystle was struggling to transition from TV to films.
“Honestly when I got the call from Mukesh sir, I was sitting right there in my corner with my girlfriends. He said we are shooting a song in four days and one girl is already selected. The team wants to see if you will be able to do it. I said ok give me some time and I cut the call," she recalled.
The song became very popular after the film's release. After Dhurandhar hit theatres, Krystle shared some behind-the-scenes photos from the sets and wrote about how the memories of shooting the track would stay with her forever.
She called Shararat a song that was “pure emotion dressed up as fun.” Krystle thanked the cast and the crew of the film for believing in her.
