Mirzapur 2's Kaleen Bhaiya aka Pankaj Tripathi speaks about his failures
India TV NewsHis road to success was paved with "many failures” but Pankaj Tripathi, who made his Hindi movie debut by playing an unnamed character in the 2004 movie “Run”, looks back at his foundation years without any regrets. Over the past few years, Tripathi has become the go-to actor for complex characters across mediums -- “Gangs of Wasseypur”, “Gurgaon”, “Mirzapur”, "Sacred Games", “Masaan”, “Newton”, “Nil Battey Sannata”, “Bareilly Ki Barfi” and “Gunjan Saxena: The Kargil Girl”. This philosophy of hopefulness permeates everything that Tripathi does, even when he is playing a ruthless Machiavellian villain like Kaleen Bhaiya in “Mirzapur” in the Amazon Prime Video crime drama series. This person felt that his caste was his real self!” The show also offers a glimpse into how youth gets attracted to this one-way game of power, Tripathi said as he praised scribes Puneet and Vineet Krishna for their nuanced writing that has introduced people to words like ‘bhokaal’. Initially, the show had drawn some comparison with “Gangs of Wasseypur”, which also featured Tripathi and revolved around the unholy nexus of power, crime and strongmen in Bihar’s coal town of Wasseypur.
