Taapsee Pannu Recalls Her Struggling Days In Bollywood, Reveals She Was Even Called A ¡®Panauti¡¯
Taapsee was told she was the worst thing about Chashme Baddoor
Rise like a phoenix, we have always been told when we go through bad days. And this is what exactly Taapsee Pannu did. Today, she is one of the most bankable actresses but it wasn¡¯t easy for her initially. She has faced rejections and been called names but she survived it all and that¡¯s the beauty of her.
Talking to Pinkvilla, Taapsee said how she was termed Panauti (jinxed) by a South director and it took her years to remove that tag from her. She even revealed how no producers and directors wanted to meet her. In fact, her agency told her that nobody finds potential in her as an actress. Getting replaced in films had become a routine.
Taapsee says, ¡°Here, I have seen a lot. I have been to award shows where I have been made to sit on the sixth row because they felt I wasn't worthy of the front row.¡±.
But the most painful thing she ever heard was, ¡°A casting director once told me I was the worst thing about Chashme Baddoor. That was hurtful¡±. But today, the same casting directors approach her for films. Well, time changes if your determined. She still fights with this nepotism war but today is more confident about herself and her work.
More power to you Taapsee. This girl is definitely our inspiration.
