Triptii Dimri on attempting comedy genre

Earlier, in an interview with IANS, Triptii Dimri spoke about attempting the comedy genre. She further sheds light on the challenges she faced. The actress said, "I want to thank Anand sir from the bottom of my heart for trusting me with the film because you haven't seen me do comedy at that level. It was difficult for me, especially with Vicky Kaushal and Ammy Virk, as they are very talented and their comic timing is very good."

As far as the film's box office performance is concerned, Bad Newz collected over Rs 100 crore (gross) at the worldwide box office. Are you looking forward to watching the film on streaming?
