One of the most talked-about scenes from Ranbir Kapoor’s hit film ‘Animal’ has sparked controversy due to its perceived derogatory portrayal of women. Amidst the uproar, lead actress Tripti Dimri has been questioned about this issue in numerous interviews. However, instead of remaining silent, she finally addressed the matter in a recent interview, sharing her perspective on the contentious scenes.
On one hand, people like Ranbir Kapoor’s blockbuster film, while on the other hand, the controversy regarding the film is also deepening. Many people are calling the film anti-women because there are scenes in the movie which are insulting women. There is a scene in the film where Ranbir Kapoor asks Trupti Dimri to lick his shoes, because of this scene Ranbir has to face a lot of criticism.
Expressing her thoughts on this controversial scene, Trupti Dimri says, “It reminded me of what my acting coach said, which was the golden rule: never judge your character. The character you are playing, and the character your co-actor is playing, all are human beings and human beings have good and bad sides. An actor should be prepared to play all kinds of characters, good, bad, and ugly, but if you judge a character’s motivations, and thoughts, you will not be able to play him honestly. So that’s what I kept in mind.”
Trupti Dimri said, “I also thought that here is a woman who talks about killing her wife, father, children, entire family… If someone said that to me, I would probably beat up that person! Here, He asks her to do it (licking the shoe) but later walks away. He is going through a lot of this (deep thoughts). Later when his cousins ask why they should have sex with me and What should be done, he says, ‘Let it go where it wants to go.’
Apart from this, Trupti Dimri’s intimate scene with Ranbir Kapoor in Animal is also attracting attention. While watching these scenes, Trupti was asked, ‘Would she like to work with Ranbir again?’ In response, Trupti said, ‘There will not be any actress in the Bollywood industry who would not want to work with Ranbir and learn from him. She further says, ‘I am enjoying the way people are liking our chemistry. I hope to work with him in the future too.
