Animal: Here's how much the new 'National crush' Tripti Dipri was paid to star opposite Ranbir Kapoor

Tripti Dimri has become the new national crush of the country post the blockbuster success of Ranbir Kapoor’s Animal. But how much was she paid to star in the film? As per a report by Lifestyle Asia, she took home a sum of Rs 40 lacs, however, the amount is not confirmed.

On her intimate scenes

When asked about the intimate scene and her parents’ reaction to it, Dimri told Bollywood Hungama, “My parents got a little taken aback. (They said) ‘We have never seen something like this in films and you have done it.’ It took them time to get over that scene. They were very sweet to me though. They were like, ‘You shouldn’t have done that… but it’s okay. As parents, we will obviously feel this.”

She added, “I told them I am not doing anything wrong. It’s my job and as long as I am comfortable and safe, I don’t see any problem in that. I am an actor and I have to be 100 percent honest with the character that I play and I did that.”

On the film’s controversy

The Laila Majnu actor has opened up about this controversy and told Indian Express.com, “It reminded me of what my acting coach had told me, the golden rule: Never judge your character. The characters you are playing, the character your co-actor is playing, all are human and humans have good and bad side. An actor must be prepared to play characters across the spectrum of good, bad and ugly, but if you judge a character’s motivations, thoughts, you won’t be able to play it with honesty. So that’s what I kept in mind.”

She added, “I also thought that here was a woman who talks about killing his wife, father, kids, the entire family… If someone tells me that, I will perhaps beat that person!”
