Tripti Dimri who has been receiving appreciation both from the audience and critics for 'Qala' got into an exclusive conversation with mid-day.com. The actress spoke about the need for appreciation and validation much like her character Qala, why director Anvitaa Dutt is like a mother to her and finally look forward to a special singing performance by Tripti.

Speaking about her debut 'Laila Majnu' co-starring Avinash Tiwary, that was presented by Imtiaz Ali and directed by Sajjad Ali she said, "After Laila Majnu there was nothing for 2 years. I was trying to figure out things and a lot of people would give suggestions about what I should and shouldn't be doing. I was confused because as an artiste I did not have confidence in me at that point of time. 'Laila Majnu' did get appreciation but not as much as a 'Bulbul.' I was doubting myself, what kind of time I should give to this because it's that age where you want to earn too. The only way is to go through that process and you start to understand yourself."
