Pankaj Tripathi has been a part of several projects and has proved to be among the finest actors of the industry after delivering back-to-back successful performances. In a recent interview, the actor was asked the impact of the box-office numbers which is a topic of much discussion as it predicts the faith of the theatrical films.
Speaking on it, the actor agreed that there have been many films that did well whereas some failed to perform however, he admitted that the producers would recover the money from the projects anyway. Also adding that he doesn't feel bad about it. He said, “Not at all. If I know that I’ve given my 100 percent during the shoot and stayed true to my craft, why should I feel bad about it? I understand the box office business. Fortunately, all the films I have done, whether or not they were box office successes, have managed to return money to the producers. I know the math.”
Pankaj's latest work includes 'Mirzapur 3' which opened to mixed reviews but managed to garner much attention from the audience. It also starred Ali Fazal and Shweta Tripathi in the lead roles. He will next appear in the upcoming Maddock Films' horror-comedy multiverse sequel Stree 2' alongside Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao. The film is slated to release on August 15 and is another addition to the previous instalment released in 2018 which managed to receive massive appreciation from the audience, who have been anticipating for another instalment over the years. During the recent trailer launch in Mumbai, the makers also shared about having the script for the third sequel ready and also promised that it won't take such a long gap as compared to the release of the second instalment.
