During a conversation with News 18, the actor revealed that he was very nervous before portraying the role of former Prime Minister. The actor said, “I was a little reluctant when this film came my way. I wasn’t sure. I thought I wouldn’t be able to do it. The makers told me, ‘You’re the only option. If you don’t do it, the film won’t get made.’ I was so overwhelmed when they told me so.”
Meanwhile, during another interview with The Indian Express, Tripathi said that he has decided to cut down on his work. “I realized I was ‘overeating’, itna acting nahi karna chahiye (One shouldn’t do so much acting),” he said.
He clarified that there are constraints to one’s thinking and performance, emphasizing his inability to alter his physicality. Rather than taking on ten projects, he prefers committing to only three. This approach allows his creative process and mind to rest, enabling him to deliver better performances.
