Pankaj Tripathi characterizes his urge to perform outstanding work, leading him to take on as many tasks as possible, such as “When you’re hungry, you tend to overeat.” However, the actor has decided to take a break. So far this year, he has had two releases: OMG 2 and the most recent Fukrey 3.
“I have started doing fewer films because I’m tired now. There are times when I don’t remember when I gave this shot, and what happened, and for which film. This is not a good situation to be in. You can’t be acting, 340 days and I was doing that. Now, I don’t want to do that,” Tripathi told PTI.
Pankaj Tripathi, a National School of Drama (NSD) graduate, stated that he did back-to-back projects because he was “hungry” for good work. “I liked those stories and hence I decided to be a part of it. The issue is when you are hungry, you tend to overeat, and when you have good food served on a plate then you surely end up overeating. So, a similar thing was happening to me. Like, there was a lot of work coming my way, and there was overeating happening,” he said.
“Main Atal Hoon,” Pankaj Tripathi’s upcoming film, is based on the life of former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee. It is directed by Ravi Jadhav, who is well known for his National Award-winning films “Natarang” and “Balgandharva.” The movie is set to be released in December.
