Taapsee Pannu is surprised that her peers rejected the film. As per the actress, her grey character in ‘Haseen Dillruba’ offers wide scope to perform. Taapsee does not mind admitting that she was not the first choice for the film.
The actress wanted to act in the dark murder mystery. She was excited when she was offered the role of “Rani”. Taapsee believes that the Vinil Mathew directed film was meant for her.
She says, “When you want something really badly the universe conspires to get it for you. Haseen Dillruba went around and then came to me. I am thankful to the actresses who said no playing Rani Kashyap.”
Taapsee Pannu added, “I don’t know why others did not want to do this part. Certain roles are not author-backed, but they are what I call ‘an actor’s candy’. This is one such character. There was no emotion that the character didn’t have the scope to show. So, I was shocked that I was given this role on a platter.”
Taapsee Pannu is confident that she has an ace up her sleeve in the Netflix film. The actress is able to portray different shades of a woman on screen very well. But her own beliefs are not the same as the character “Rani”.
Taapsee was asked whether she was comfortable playing a character she doesn’t identify with. The actress responded, “It’s like you are psyching your brain to do something you don’t believe in. But it’s the cost we pay for being an actor.”
