T-series' head honcho Bhushan Kumar has joined forces with filmmaker Anubhav Sinha for a long-term association and they are beginning their filmmaking partnership with Taapsee Pannu starrer Thappad.

Having worked together in Tum Bin and several other movies, the duo share a warm bond and they have now teamed up to make some thought-provoking and entertaining films. Speaking about this new collaboration, Bhushan Kumar said, “I am happy to associate with Anubhav once again. He is not only a gifted filmmaker but also has a great sense of music. He makes movies that are relevant and start conversations among the audience and I am keen to associate with this kind of cinema.  With our collective strengths together, we are hoping to deliver some extraordinary, content and musically rich films.”

Sharing Bhushan Kumar’s excitement, Anubhav Sinha stated, “Magic happens when creative people come together. I am really looking forward to this partnership with Bhushan Kumar, as he gives the creative liberty and has a good understanding of what can work with the audience and what will not. I am happy to associate with Bhushan and combine our creative forces together for the pure love of cinema.”

Thappad, which marks the beginning of their association, aims to explore the very basis of a man-woman relationship and gender equality, through an engaging story of a husband and wife. The film is being directed by Anubhav Sinha and features Taapsee as the female lead.  Anubhav has previously worked with Taapsee in Mulk.
