Pankaj Tripathi and Pankaj Jha
Panchayat actor Pankaj Jha recently took a dig at Mirzapur star Pankaj Tripathi and called him out for romanticizing his struggles. Now, Tripathi has hit back at Jha for the remark and said that he never tried to glamorize his hardship and struggles. Tripathi also shared that he never said he would tie a gamcha (towel) on his waist and sleep outside Andheri station.
In an interview with India Today, when Pankaj Tripathi was asked about Jha`s comment, he reacted by saying, "I never romanticized my journey or struggles. Yes, I did mention that my wife used to earn while I looked for work. I never said that I would tie a gamcha (towel) on my waist and sleep outside Andheri station. I had a good and happy life when we moved to Mumbai. I have never tried to glamorize or seek sympathy from it."
