Pankaj Tripathi On Taking Break From Acting After Father's Death: ‘Didn't Sign A Film…'
Last Updated: Pankaj Tripathi said that he never officially announced a break, but following his father's death, he embarked on an introspective journey. Pankaj Tripathi is one of the finest actors in the Hindi film industry. He was recently seen in Criminal Justice: A Family Matter, which premiered on JioHotstar. The actor recently revealed that he took a 1-year-long break from acting, and did not sign a single film the past year. The break was intentional, and the actor shared that while he did not announce the hiatus, he embarked on an introspective journey. Pankaj Tripathi said that he needed the time to work on himself and heal-physically and mentally. While speaking to The Hollywood Reporter India, Pankaj Tripathi said, 'After my father's demise, I went on an introspective journey. I did not sign a film for one year, and I didn't announce that I was taking a break." He further added, 'I took time off to work on myself and heal, physically and mentally. That's why I've lost weight. I work out for three hours a day, six days a week. I also travelled — trips that I'd been putting off for a long time." Although Pankaj Tripathi fulfilled minor professional commitments over the last year- like ad shoots and patchwork for Anurag Basu's 'Metro…In Dino', he deliberately stepped away from media interactions and chose not to take on new scripts. He shared that he kept telling everyone that he doesn't have time, but that time was actually reserved for introspection. Pankaj Tripathi Reveals Why He Took A Break From Acting 'I'm at a point where I'm no longer working for the money. I need to do work that gives me something to look forward to," he said. He recalled that there was a time when he was counting days on projects just waiting for them to end. 'And I thought- this can't be right. I love this profession so much. I've made so many sacrifices to get here, and if I'm spending my days just waiting for shoots to wrap, then something's wrong. That's why I took a break," he explained. Pankaj Tripathi's father, Pandit Banaras Tiwari, passed away in August 2023. He was 99. Post his father's death, Pankaj Tripathi dedicated his big National Award win to him and also opened a library in his village high school, as a token of remembrance for him. Meanwhile, Pankaj Tripathi will next be seen in 'Metro… In Dino', which is a sequel to the 2007 drama 'Life… In A Metro.' Helmed by Anurag Basu, the film features an ensemble cast including Aditya Roy Kapur, Sara Ali Khan, Fatima Sana Shaikh, Ali Fazal, Pankaj Tripathi, Konkona Sen Sharma, Anupam Kher, Neena Gupta and Saswat Chatterjee in the lead. It will hit the big screens on July 2, 2025. First Published:

Cardi B Confirms Romance With NFL Star Stefon Diggs With Instagram Post
Last Updated: The post comes when she is in the middle of divorce from her estranged husband, Offset. Cardi B has a new man in her life! The 32-year-old singer and rapper just debuted her romance with NFL star Stefon Diggs on her Instagram. On Sunday, June 1, Cardi dropped several pictures from her recent weekend getaway with her new boyfriend. This comes when she is in the middle of divorce from her estranged husband, Offset. The post began with a picture of Cardi B lounging on a yacht while wearing a bold black monokini. The next photo showed her cuddled up with Stefon on the deck, where she leaned forward for a kiss with her leg draped around the New England Patriots wide receiver. The post titled 'Chapter 5 ……Hello Chapter six" also featured a raunchy video which showcased Cardi B twerking on Stefon. The Grammy-winner's post from the Memorial Day celebration in Miami last weekend featured a solo photo of the singer in an animal-printed blanket, followed by a glimpse of a room filled with hundreds of red roses and giant teddy bears, seemingly gifted by her boyfriend, Stefon. Furthermore, Cardi was seen flaunting her chunky diamond jewellery and showing off her look in a black dress. The carousel ended with a picture of the singer and rapper dressed in a blue top with pink hair. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Cardi B (@iamcardib) Cardi and Stefon first sparked rumours of their romance back in February when they were spotted on a Valentine's Day date in Miami. More recently, the duo even attended a MET Gala after-party and was seen together at a New York Knicks playoff game. Cardi B's gesture of making her relationship with Stefon Insta official got a thumbs-up from her fans. In no time, they flocked to the comment section to wish her the best. One of her fans said, 'We love this for you doll. U leave the old raggedy man and get better. I hope he stays treating you well." Another added, 'It's nothing more better than a dude cheating on a woman, and she just levels up ten more notches!!!! Hell yeah!" A different fan wrote, 'Moving on always has a different glow." The post came right after Cardi B hosted a session on X Spaces, where she slammed her former husband, Offset, with whom she was married for seven years, for not covering their children, Kulture, Wave and another baby girl, expenses. She said that she has been covering all the expenses, including their tuition, classes and other things, without any support from him. Cardi slammed him after TMZ reported that Offset filed amended divorce papers in May, in which he asked his former wife to pay spousal support and joint custody of their kids. First Published:
