Taapsee Pannu calls 'content is king’ a myth, talks about hypocrisy in Bollywood
She said people want to know 'who is the hero' even before they hear a line about a film
Taapsee Pannu has opened up about how small-budget films get affected by the ‘star system’ in Bollywood. In an interview, the actor, who made her debut a producer with the just-released film Dhak Dhak, called out the hypocrisy that’s blatant in the film industry.
She said people want to know 'who is the hero' even before they hear a line about a film.
The actor believes that it all boils down to the ‘star system’ eventually, which still exists despite the advent of OTT.
Recently it was reported that Taapsee Pannu had distanced herself from the promotions of Dhak Dhak as she felt 'used and bulldozed' said sources, with their marketing strategy of the film, which was released on October 13.
Dhak Dhak sees four ordinary women from different walks of life setting out for a bike ride and discovering themselves and the essence of sisterhood through the course of the journey.
Actors Ratna Pathak Shah, Dia Mirza Rekhi, Fatima Sana Shaikh and Sanjana Sanghi feature in lead roles in Dhak Dhak.
