Known for her powerful role in Pink, among others, actress Taapsee Pannu recently said that a film’s failure or success is not the end of life. “If my films fail, I will work on something else, my life will not end. And the film is not the end of my life. Perhaps that confidence and sense of security from within me drives me to choose all these films that I have chosen so far,” said the 31-year-old model in an interview with a leading media organisation.
Gearing up for her next release, Manmarziyaan, next Friday, Taapsee said that her fearless attitude translates into her performances. “I think that translates on-screen in my performances. While I do my work with a sense of honesty, I tell myself, what is the worse that can happen? I fail right? So, will I stop living after that? No. I will try again.” She was recently seen in Mulk and Soorma.
The actress, who recently partnered with her sister, Shagun, to start a wedding planner organisation, also plans to open her café soon. “I’m planning on opening a café but it is just on that idea level. Once I have time and manpower, I will execute the idea. My point is that I will do different things that are not attached to my acting career. So tomorrow, if I have to leave this profession, the other venture should not have a string attached to that. It is good to have a life beyond films."
Manmarziyaan also stars Vicky Kaushal and Abhishek Bachchan. “My character is outspoken, little confused, and thinks from the heart and that puts her into trouble. I think her outspoken nature is something that I so can relate to,” she said.
