Taapsee Pannu
Anubhav Sinha, who has made some thought-provoking films like Mulk and Article 15, has finished the shooting of his upcoming film, Thappad, which stars Taapsee Pannu in the lead role.
As they wrapped up the film’s shoot, Taapsee posted a picture from the sets and along with it, she wrote, “Final pack up on #Thappad. 31 days flew faster than storm but left the same impact. While most of the times I am thanking my stars to get a chance to work with such a director ( in this case I got lucky twice ) but other times I see it as a curse. Curse of too much comfort , too much ease, too complex an emotion simplified too easily, too much to learn, too much of happiness, the only thing too little is the number of days spent on set. Damn! It’s gonna be tough moving on to the next one... Until we shake the world again..... @anubhavsinhaa I shall haunt u as your nutritionist if not an actor!”
Dia Mirza, who is also playing a key role in the movie, wrote, “कुछ कहानियाँ हम सब से बड़ी होतीं हैं! इस #Thappad कीगूँज दूर तक जाएगी। some more incredible women who are a part of this amazing film are not a part of this picture. Thank you @anubhavsinha for telling this story and bringing us all together.”
Sinha is exploring the very basis of a man-woman relationship and gender equality, through an engaging story of a husband and wife. Thappad also stars Kumd Mishra, Ratna Pathak Shah, Tanvi Azmi, Geetika Vidya, Maya Sarao, Naila Grewal and Gracy Goswami and will release on International Women’s Day 2020.
