Actor Pankaj Tripathigraced the 54th International Film Festival of India in Goa recently as his film Kadak Singh premiered at the festival. The actor was also a part of a masterclass where he spoke about his acting experiences. Tripathi talked about how people now see him as a humble person and said that sometimes he wonders if he truly is humble or just acting.
The actor said, “While I live my life, I also observe it and I am exploring it. In recent times, an image has formed about me that I am a very humble person. Everyone else says so. Now I am literally evaluating if I am genuinely so ‘humble’ or if I am a sharp witted man who acts to be a humble man. I am still discovering it. So am I really humble? Because even I get angry. I even get the feeling of taking revenge, but then I overcome it with time.”

Tripathi said that he usually does not get frustrated easily and opened up about how he would never refuse any roles earlier. The actor said that he thought he would become ‘frustrated’ after Gangs of Wassepur, but nothing happened. “I had no problems for eight years and I did not get frustrated. I don’t know why. I was a very content man. After playing a cop in daily soap for a week, I never came back home and thought ‘what am I doing with my life?’ I never refused any kind of role,” he said.
His film Kadak Singh tells the story of AK Shrivastav, played by Pankaj Tripathi, who is dealing with retrograde amnesia. The film also stars Parvathy Thiruvothu, Sanjana Sanghi, and Jaya Ahsan.
Pankaj was recently awarded the National Film Award for his work in Laxman Utekar’s Mimi.
