Triptii Dimri says she didn’t see Ranbir Kapoor starrer Animal as an ‘anti-feminist’ film: 'What was exciting was that I have only done...'

After doing unconventional projects like Laila Majnu, Qala and Bulbbul, Triptii Dimri emerged as an overnight sensation with Ranbir Kapoor starrer Animal, her first out-and-out commercial movie.

After _Animal_ , she was seen in mainstream films like Bad Newz and Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video. In a recent interview, the actress revealed she didn’t find Animal as an anti-feminist movie like many others opined.

“I didn’t look at it as an anti-feminist film. I don’t give such tags to films. Even while doing Bulbbul and Qala, I never thought I was doing a feminist film. I connected with the characters, had faith in the directors and felt I should do it,” Triptii shared with Filmfare.

“Even when Animal was offered to me, I met Sandeep sir and he didn’t tell me much about the story, he explained my character. To me, what was exciting was that I have only done goody and nice person roles – who get sympathy at the end – till now, and I felt this was a nice space to be in where I do this character,” she added.

Recalling Vanga telling her about her character, Triptii said, “He told me something very interesting. He wanted to see innocence and kindness in my eyes but inside I should have that mission in my heart, that I want to accomplish. How do I get there, that was my job. I found it challenging and interesting, that’s what made me say yes.”

“And of course, everybody wants to do a big film. Till that time, I was an actor who had done Bulbbul, Qala, and all the films that were being offered, were only those types of movies. I would have loved to do such films and I would love to continue doing those. However, at that time, getting a big film was a big deal for me. Maybe, I’ll get to learn something new and I’ll also get to see how big films are made,” she added.
