After Bulbbul and Qala, Triptii Dimri continues her Netflix trajectory with the upcoming dark comedy, Maa Behen, establishing her as a recurring face in the platform’s original film slate. Also uniting Madhuri Dixit, Ravi Kishan and Dharna Durga for the first time, the Suresh Triveni directorial centres on Rekha and her daughters, Jaya and Sushma, who are already the subject of scrutiny in their neighbourhood. Things take a hilarious turn when they find a dead body in their kitchen and are forced to come together for a cover-up.

What’s eye-catchy is Triptii Dimri’s sharp pivot to a dark comedy genre, and her smooth comedy timing that adds to her character as the ‘Badi behen’ - one who carries the responsibility and also a quirky side to her, with a natural, homely dialect that makes her portrayal tailor-made for her. And audiences are loving her range!

“Triptii is so good in comedy,” expressed one fan, while another wrote, “Timepass comedy movie. Triptii Dimri is selecting good movies now. So beautiful she is. Madhuri is still very beautiful.” While a user commented on Triptii’s Netflix stint as a “comeback”, the OTT giant proudly reacted with, “She never left!” A user is happy to see Triptii Dimri back in a Netflix movie, and another simply declared Triptii as “Aajkal ki Smita Patil.”

“Triptii has real talent and sense of humour…a real comeback for three of them…aag laga di bhai!” wrote a user and another commented, “Triptii is glowing! Watched trailer, looks interesting..excited to watch.” A user wrote, “Yaar, Triptii mast acting karti hai,” and honestly, we agree!

Triptii Dimri’s screen choices feel more like an evolution of her as an actress and her filmography. The actress started the year with a bang with O’ Romeo’s trailer, showcasing a mature and serious shade to her who lets her eyes do the talking. Enters Maa Behen, which brings out Triptii’s internalised flamboyance in a genre that brings out an unseen shade of her. With this, it would be safe to say that Triptii is one of the most versatile actresses of today’s Hindi cinema, one who blends like water with any character she’s given.

First O’ Romeo then Maa Behen - on the big screen, then Netflix - audiences are in for peak entertainment with Triptii Dimri!
