Actor Shweta Tripathi calls her Lucknow visit a childhood revisit. The actor on her recent visit says, “This city is my nani’s home and coming here back and forth is like going back to my childhood days.”
Shweta also had a chance to visit a library, the majestic Amir-ud-Daula Library. “I belong to this city and still, God knows why I couldn’t visit the Amir-ud-Daula Library ever. It has a huge collection of pre-independence and Nawabi-era books, texts, and lipi (scriptures). I was surprised to see the vast collection. Wish city youngsters to help conserve this huge heritage and literature.”
During this visit, Shweta was finally able to visit her long-due food spots. “Bakkse wale khaste, kulfi and chaat that were missed in earlier visits. Ab ki baar aatma tript hui,” she exclaims. “I couldn’t wait for the morning and was super excited for our early morning food trail in the city. Kash yeh sab flavours mein apne saath le jaapati.”
The actor, who is busy prepping for a play that co-stars her husband, actor-rapper Chaitanya Sharma aka Slow Cheetah, calls these short breaks important. She explains, “I am an actor who can prepare for a role day and night. I play the scene in my head so for me breaks are super essential and if the break is about Lucknow then nothing like it.”

Looking ahead, Shweta says this year is all about work and projects that she wrapped last year. “I have completed a lot of shooting schedules in 2025, like Mirzapur jo mere liye franchise kam, ek ghar sa hain. Film will be a bonus. I also have projects aligned for the year end.”
