Triptii Dimri has quickly made a name for herself in Bollywood since her debut in Poster Boys (2017). However, it was her standout cameo in the 2023 action-thriller Animal with Ranbir Kapoor that really made her a household name and earned her the title of the country’s National Crush. While Triptii enjoyed the love she got for playing Zoya, she also faced criticism, which had a big impact on her.

Triptii Dimri on facing backlash for 'Animal' bold scenes

In an interview with Ranveer Allahbadia on his YouTube channel, Triptii Dimri talked about her early struggles, her rise to fame, and how the criticism after Animal affected her emotionally. She admitted she cried for two to three days because she wasn’t ready for the flood of negative comments. Triptii caught a lot of attention for her intimate scenes with Ranbir in the movie. Before Animal, she was known for roles with strong female characters, but her bold scenes left social media divided. “Roti thi because dimaag khraab hogaya tha ke kya likh rahe hain log (I would cry because I got mad thinking what people were writing)” she shared, saying some comments were unnecessarily harsh.
