MUMBAI: Taapsee Pannu is shooting
for Sujoy Ghosh's thriller Badla in
Scotland and also stars Amitabh
Bachchan. The Pink actress has been
shooting for films back to back and
has two films out for release within 3
weeks of each other. Soorma which is
up for release this week, will see
Taapsee play the character of Harpreet
Kaur, an Indian field hockey player,
opposite Diljit Dosanjh's Sandeep
Singh, whereas the Anubhav Sinha
helmed courtroom drama, Mulk will
see Taapsee play the role of a defence
lawyer.
Mulk is based on one of the most
controversial topics not just in India,
but the world; Islamophobia. An issue
as sensitive and controversial as this, a
lot of people were wary about the way
it would be received by the audience.
However, Taapsee being the fiery
woman she is, wanted things to
change and therefore decided to act in
the film. She wanted to be the voice for
a cause that not everyone wants to be
associated with; the cause of
humanity. In order to get the point of
view of Muslims who are ostracized as
a whole due to Islamic terrorist
activities, the Naam Shabana actress
wanted to work in a film that would
resonate in the minds of the audience
in general.
She said, " I have grown up in an area
in Delhi where I didn't really come
across many Muslims but in Mumbai
my life is practically run by 3 important
people who all are a part of Muslim
community and I never really realised
that or considered that until I started
seeing people pointing it out or the
world politics going bizarre. This really
made my voice my opinion through my
work and hence I felt the urge to say
yes to Mulk apart from the fact that
Anubhav sir had beautifully crafted this
story. I think it's high time the elephant
in the room is addressed.

This is very irresponsible of her and sends a bad message

The grooming gangs in UK were sexually abusing little girls, kids for more than 3 decades and the local police ignored it despite the complaints bcz they were afraid of racial profiling accusations... They punished the victims in some cases

That's unbelievable, this happened in 21 century UK. This is what PC does to a society

It's got to do with what she said


She's talking about islamophobia, a word thrown around a lot in recent years

Whenever anybody talks about violence, terrorisim they are accused of it
