Parambrata on Triptii Dimri's 'national crush' tag

During one rapid-fire round, Parambrata was asked to rank his female co-stars based on talent. He placed Triptii Dimri at the bottom and ranked Vidya Balan the most talented. He went on to say about the ‘national crush’ tag that such tags are temporary while real talent is permanent. He said, "It is what it is; national crushes are temporary, but class is permanent. I mean, no offence. Sorry. What is she called? Bhabhi 2!"

He also drew a comparison with Vidya Balan, saying, "She is lovely, a very nice girl, and I really get along with her. But she still has miles to go. She entered the industry very young and will learn a lot. But Vidya, I mean, sorry to say, is a class apart in whatever she does."
