Actress Triptii Dimri, who is all set to be seen in the much-anticipated film Dhadak 2, recently attended the trailer launch event held in Mumbai. During the launch, she reflected on her journey as an actor, her approach to choosing challenging roles, and her experience of working with director Shazia Iqbal on a film that’s far from conventional.
“I Had Wished to Be Part of Certain Kinds of Films…”
Sharing how Dhadak 2 aligns with her creative aspirations, Triptii said: “When I started my acting career, I had wished to be a part of certain kinds of films, and I have been a part of those films.”
Her words hinted at the kind of meaningful, layered roles she’s been gravitating toward—and how Dhadak 2 fits perfectly into that vision.
Triptii Calls Dhadak 2 'Challenging'
Opening up about her character in Dhadak 2, Triptii revealed the emotional intensity the role demanded.
“Dhadak 2 is not a usual story, in fact, it is special beyond measure. It was quite challenging to play the part. I have always desired to play such kind of characters that could challenge me as an actor, so the thrill of acting continues. And I feel that was justified in ‘Dhadak 2’. We are quite proud of this film, and the audiences will realize this once they watch it in theatres.”
A Story of Love, Identity & Resistance
Starring Triptii Dimri and Siddhant Chaturvedi, Dhadak 2 is a powerful love story that takes a stark turn from the original installment. The film explores caste discrimination, power dynamics, and identity struggles, weaving a tale where two people fight systemic barriers to preserve their love.
Triptii’s role marks a shift into a more mature, socially grounded space, reflecting the emotional and psychological costs that come with loving against the odds.
About Dhadak 2
While Dhadak (2018), which launched Janhvi Kapoor, was a romantic drama rooted in tradition, Dhadak 2 dives deeper into the harsh social realities still prevalent in India. Directed by Shazia Iqbal, the film promises to deliver not just a love story, but a commentary on caste, privilege, and resistance.
Produced by Karan Johar, Umesh Kumar Bansal, Adar Poonawalla, Apoorva Mehta, Meenu Aroraa, Somen Mishra, and Pragati Deshmukh, Dhadak 2 is slated for a theatrical release on August 1, 2025.
