My Take
I deeply respect Taapsee Pannu's choices. Moving from modelling into acting across Hindi, Telugu and Tamil cinema, she has consistently picked roles with real substance, films like Pink and Badla that probe dignity, justice and tension rather than mere glamour. Her Filmfare wins confirm what audiences already feel: she can carry a film on craft alone. I also admire that she completed her university studies before committing to performance, which lends her a grounded, deliberate quality. In an industry that often rewards surface, she has built a career on backbone, and that is exactly the kind of actress I find worth following closely.
