Delhi: Bollywood actress Triptii Dimri, known for her mesmerizing performances in Laila Majnu, Bulbbul, and Animal, has come a long way in the industry. As she celebrates her 31st birthday on February 23, 2025, we take a nostalgic trip back to a defining moment in her life—one that showcased both her humble beginnings and her father’s immense pride in her achievements.

Growing up in Air India Colony, Vasant Vihar, Delhi, Triptii had to fight her way into Bollywood. Initially, convincing her parents about her passion for modeling was a challenge, and pursuing films was an even bigger battle.

After making her Bollywood debut with Poster Boys (2017), Dimri's true recognition came with Imtiaz Ali's Laila Majnu (2018), where she played the delicate yet fiery Laila. The film may not have been a box-office success, but it became a cult classic, winning her praise for her raw and heartfelt performance.
