New Delhi: Pankaj Tripathi’s wife Mridula is all set to make her Bollywood debut very soon. The actor, who is preparing for the release of his upcoming film Sherdil: The Pilibhit Saga, shared that Mridula is also a part of the film.
Revealing how Mridula landed the cameo appearance, he said that she didn’t even ask to be paid for it. Mridula’s guest role will see her playing a character, who is Bengali.
Pankaj told India Today, “My wife Mridula will be debuting with Sherdil. She has done one scene in the film. Director Srijit Mukerjee, who has a Bengali connection with my wife, asked her to come on the sets and promised to give her one scene. She immediately said yes because she got to wear a beautiful Bengali saree in the film. It was an easy bribe, she didn’t even get paid.”
About his daughter, Aashi Tripathi, he replied, “As of now she has no plans to enter Bollywood. Right now she is studying. I haven’t seen the future yet but will see when the time comes. For now, I want her to study hard and play sports. But she writes really well, she is very good at literature and is at the top of her class. Also, she reads a lot, but for now, she hasn’t shown any interest. Will see what happens in the future.”
Sherdil: The Pilibhit Saga, scheduled to release on June 24, is inspired by the real events that took place in the Pilibhit Tiger Reserve. The Srijit Mukherji directorial also stars Neeraj Kabi and Sayani Gupta.
