Overview
- The pair, whose reunion was reported Monday, are back in rehearsals for External Affairs with director Akarsh Khurana.
- This production marks their first time portraying a romantic couple on stage since becoming partners in real life.
- They first met during theatre rehearsals in 2013 under Khurana, a connection that gives the new collaboration a full‑circle feel.
- Tripathi says performing with her spouse creates a judgment‑free space built on trust, and she credits his discipline with sharpening her approach.
- Alongside the stage work, she is slated to appear in Mirzapur—The Movie on September 4, which situates the theatre return within a busy screen slate.
