Shweta Tripathi does not get taken by the glamour aspect of acting on screen and says she rather finds the traits of a character interesting.
The 33-year-old actor, best known for films such as "Masaan" and "Haraamkhor", says she is willing to try everything for a character, as long as it is necessary.
"I am an actor, I might do one scene in a film or be there throughout. The glamour aspect of it has never excited me. Like, if you say, that my character is on a wheelchair I will be excited but if you discuss clothes with me, I will be put off.
"...I don't care about it as it is the job of hair, make-up and stylist, I want the director to tell me my character traits. I can go bald also for a film. This for me is acting," Shweta told PTI.
Like her contemporaries, the actor also has a fascination for the commercial cinema and she says she wants to be a part of it.
"It excites me. I want more people to see my work and it happens if you do commercial films. There was a film that was going to be very commercial but I was not fully convinced so I backed out and it did not happen.
"When I take up a film or role, I don't want to be fake, I don't want to wear a mask. I want to be myself. I know it will take time but I am here for a longer run."
"As actors you have to keep showing variety in performance as people are lazy to think about you in a different way. People love to put human beings or actors in boxes. It is difficult but I have to break (this notion). As an actor I want to do everything, I don't have any limitations."
