Animal star Tripti Dimri broke her silence on the viral video showing her gazing at Ranbir Kapoor. Following the release of Animal, a video from the pre-release press conference had gone viral showing Tripti’s eyes locked on Ranbir. The cast and director, Sandeep Reddy Vanga, were posing for the cameras when the paparazzi caught this moment. In a new interview, the actress opened up about the moment and said that she was very nervous during the moment. So much so that her father noticed and gave her a call the next day.
Speaking to Siddharth Kannan, the Qala star said, “Hum log screening pe the. And, puri cast ka shoot karna tha unko. [We were at the screening. They wanted to shoot the whole cast.] They wanted the whole cast of Animal together. And people were talking. And, he (Ranbir Kapoor) was right in front of me talking to somebody. So, if someone’s talking to someone in front of me, obviously, you will look at that person.”
“If you will notice, I was just rubbing my hands. My dad, in fact, called me after watching the whole footage. And he was like, ‘Were you nervous?’. I said, ‘Haan. How did you know?’ He was like, ‘You were rubbing your hands. I know, you rub your hands when you are nervous,’” she added.
