After the success of Badla, Mission Mangal and Saand Ki Aankh in 2019, Taapsee Pannu is looking forward to the release of her Thappad, which will be her first release in the year 2020. The movie has been directed by well-known filmmaker Anubhav Sinha whose last directorial offering, Article 15, received widespread acclaim in 2019.
Taapsee Pannu is quite psyched up about the upcoming film. Talking about in detail, the talented actress says, “Working with Anubhav sir is always an enriching experience and he encourages one to push the envelope. When he discussed Thappad, I immediately decided this was a film I had to do. It has a thought-provoking storyline and deals with a subject which must be addressed in our society.”
Adding further, Pannu says, “To put it in perspective, looking at what we aim to convey with our film, I can say Thappad is this year’s Pink (2016).”
Besides Taapsee Pannu, Thappad also boasts the presence of several experienced actors on its ensemble cast, including Ratna Pathak Shah, Manav Kaul, Dia Mirza, Tanvi Azmi and Ram Kapoor. The movie has been produced by Anubhav Sinha in association with Bhushan Kumar of T-Series Films. It is scheduled to arrive in cinemas on 28th February. Before its theatrical release on 28th February, the makers are set to release the trailer on 31st January 2020.
In addition to Thappad, Taapsee Pannu is also doing filmmaker Vinil Mathew's mystery thriller Haseen Dillruba. The film mounted the shooting floor recently. A couple of days ago, the makers of her much-awaited film Shabaash Mithu unveiled its poster. Shabaash Mithu is a biopic on Indian cricketer Mithali Raj. The actress is also doing a couple of films down South.
