We had to have a long discussion on why that scene was crucial.” Triptii added that she knows they are proud of her.”During the interview, the actress shared details about the time her “father called her on stage during a colony event to address the audience right after Laila Majnu had been released.” Laila Majnu, directed by Sajid Ali, was released in 2008. FYI: Triptii made her Bollywood debut with the 2017 film Poster Boys.

Sandeep sir [director Sandeep Reddy Vanga] was clear that it was going to be a small role, but I found the character interesting. If we start making decisions based on what audiences are going to say, then as actors, we won’t ever be able to do what we want to do.”
Talking about people questioning her decision to choose such a role after Bulbbul and Qala, she said, “I want to choose roles that push me out of my comfort zone. There’s a lot of advice on offer and I listen to it all, but it comes down to instinct. I might make mistakes along the way, but I’m allowed to.”
