Fresh Delhi:
Actress Divyanka Tripathi rose to fame after appearing in a popular TV show Yeh Hai Mohabbatein. The actress played the role of Ishita Bhalla in the series. Now she is back on screen in a modern avatar, playing the role of a mother with an unexpected twist in the show Adrishyam – as a secret agent and intelligence officer. In a recent interview with Indian Express, Divyanka Tripathi talked about how she has changed over the years. The actress said that she previously worked for money because she needed to “survive”. Diwianka said: “Now I feel like going to a party, going for a ride. I want to live my life now. I’m a completely different person than when I started. At that time I also worked for money, I had to survive, so I would overload myself with work. Now I value my relationships, I like being with people I love. Now I manage my life in such a way that everything is balanced.
Divyanka also talked about the pressure of social media and her approach to choosing career options. She said: “I always tried to stay up to date. I’ve tried to have my own representation on social media, it’s a constant evolution. Sometimes I have to force myself to do certain things. But now consciously make sure I don’t take on a form I don’t like.”
“Sometimes you have to work, but you just don’t like the character. Whenever I take on a role, I get married to it, so if it doesn’t win my heart, I can’t do it, it’s like cheating. So yes, I am. Now I am very selective about my work, a sense of self-respect has emerged. I no longer disrespect myself by playing a role that weakens me in any way,” Divyanka added.
On the professional front, Divyanka Tripathi has appeared in shows like Yeh Hai Mohabbatein, Banoo Main Teri Dulhann, Coldd Lassi Aur Chicken Masala, Mrs. &Mr. Sharma, The Magic of Shiri and others. You’ll be able to see her next time Adrishyam alongside Eijaaz Khan.
