Pankaj Tripathi opened up recently about dealing with box-office results of his films and said that he doesn’t feel bad about them not doing well. His last film, Main Atal Hoon, which was a biopic, didn’t fare well at the box-office.

In an interview with News18, Pankaj said that he doesn’t feel bad about it. “If I know that I’ve given my 100 per cent during the shoot and stayed true to my craft, why should I feel bad about it? I understand the box office business. Fortunately, all the films I have done, whether or not they were box office successes, have managed to return money to the producers. I know the math,” he said.

Main Atal Hoon was based on the life of former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee and was helmed by Marathi director Ravi Jadhav, in his Hindi film debut. According to Sacnilk.com, the film managed to earn just over Rs 9.95 crore across the country.

Pankaj was last seen in the third season of Mirzapur. He will be seen next in Stree 2, whose trailer was unveiled recently. It is scheduled to release on August 15.
