She admitted that Varun Teja was supportive in nature. She described him as an understanding life partner.

“Varun watched the Miss Perfect and he liked my work. He also posted on Instagram. Varun and I will go ahead with our professional work. He is not involved in my projects. He listens whenever I tell him about the script I have selected,” she laughs.

Acting in web series was never a challenge for Lavanya Tripathi as she claims that Miss Perfect gave her a refreshing experience.

“Acting in Miss Perfect series did not feel challenging anywhere. Moreover, it is very refreshing. I have done another thriller after the Puli Meka web series. I acted in a dark thriller in Tamil. After such action and thrillers, it seemed very easy to do a rom-com. The only difficulty was catching the lines. I have always been selective in my choice of films,” the actor says.
