Triptii Dimri recently graced the India Today Conclave Mumbai 2024. The actress, who gained widespread recognition for her role in the film Animal, shared her experiences of navigating the competitive landscape of Bollywood. She spoke openly about the overwhelming love and support she has received from her fans, admitting that she was initially unprepared for the sudden surge in popularity. The actress described the unique feeling of connecting with her audience on a personal level, a connection that has been a driving force in her career.
However, Dimri had also faced backlash for the role of Zoya. She defended her portrayal of the character, asserting that she approached the role with the same authenticity and nuance she brings to all her work. She argued that individuals are capable of both good and bad deeds, and that films provide a platform to explore these complexities. "I would approach Zoya's character exactly the same way I did. As humans, we all have different shades - good, bad, and even ugly. I feel that films allow us to explore these sides. Acting lets us experience a wide range of emotions, and I consider actors lucky because we get to live through so many different experiences in one lifetime,” the actress said.
Reflecting on her decision to join the cast of Animal, Dimri emphasized that she is selective about her projects and will not take up any role out of desperation. She explained that she was drawn to the complexity of her character, Zoya, and the opportunity to explore the multifaceted nature of human beings. "For me, I don't like staying in my comfort zone. With Bulbbul and Qala, I found that comfort, and while I love drama, being on those sets always energised me. However, when Animal came along, I found it truly challenging. As an actor, it's important to take on something that pushes you. Every time I get a role, I feel like it's both scary and challenging. That's exactly how I felt when Sandeep sir explained Zoya's character to me. She seemed both brave and innocent at the same time, and that excited me. I’m always looking for roles that offer something different,” she added.
Triptii said that she has learnt from her acting coach not to judge the characters she plays on-screen. She said, "Once, I received advice from my acting coach. I was struggling with a character because I felt it was very different from who I am, and I found myself judging it. He told me, 'You have an idea of the character now, but you’re treating it as an outsider.' I failed miserably at first. He reminded me that this character is also a human being, and I needed to understand her better. Since that day, I’ve never judged any character I’ve played."
On the work front, Triptii Dimri is gearing up for the release of Vicky Aur Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video, starring Rajkummar Rao, on October 11.
