Taapsee Pannu will play the lead role in the Hindi adaptation of German cult classic Run Lola Run, says Mumbai Mirror. Originally depicted by actress Franka Potente, Pannu will get on board the film, which will have Tahir Raj Bhasin stepping into Moritz Bleibtreu’s shoes to play her boyfriend, adds the report. The film is scheduled to release on 29 January, 2021.
The film is titled Looop Lapeta, and will see ad filmmaker Aakash Bhatia come as the director.
Confirming the news to the publication, the actress says she was fortunate to play content-heavy, author-backed roles at the moment. Mirror quotes her as saying, "Savi is a quirky, insane addition to my repertoire. I love how an iconic film like Run Lola Run has been adapted for the Indian milieu without losing its edge, and more excitingly, it’s been laced with amazingly cheeky straight-faced humour."
