Career
Dimri had a small part in Mom (2017) and her first lead role in the comedy Poster Boys (2017). She played Laila in Imtiaz Ali’s production Laila Majnu (2018), a romance set in Kashmir. It did poorly in cinemas but later gained a devoted following, especially after a re-release in 2024.
In Anvita Dutt’s Netflix gothic tale Bulbbul (2020), produced by Anushka Sharma‘s Clean Slate Filmz, Dimri played a child bride who becomes a vengeful figure. The role won her the Filmfare OTT Award for Best Actress. She worked with Dutt and Clean Slate again on Qala (2022), playing a troubled singer in 1930s–40s India, and earned more critical praise. Forbes India named her in its 30 Under 30 list in 2021.
Her supporting role as Zoya in Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s Animal (2023) brought her national fame and a Filmfare nomination. In 2024 she starred in the comedies Bad Newz and Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video and in the horror comedy Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3. In Dhadak 2 (2025) she played a role that critics praised for breaking away from her glamorous image.
