Taapsee Pannu To Land A Role In The Biopic Of Cricket Captain Mithali Raj

After landing a significant role in movies like Mission Mangal, Sandh Ki Aankh and Soorma, it is quite known that Taapsee Pannu’s credit is tagged with biopics. Now, the actress is going to be seen as Indian woman cricket team’s famous leader, Mithali Raj. She shared that she is going to take on cricket lessons for her role.

Taapsee said that she is enthralled by biopic movies among which about sportspersons are her biggest interest. In general, she is fond of sports. Also, the actress shared that she will certainly learn cricket to get into the role because she is doing a movie about a cricket team’s caption, not to mention she is among the best cricket player they have.

Lately, Taapsee Pannu met Mithali Raj on the captain’s birthday. What impressed the most was how humble the cricketer is. According to Taapsee, Mithali talks much less, loves reading and is quiet, totally in contrast with her. Therefore, she thinks she has to work a lot in order to successfully transform into Mithali Raj.

There is another biopic of sports that Taapsee will take part in. It is Rocket Rashmi, a film helmed by director Akarsh Khurana. About this, she said rather than a sports biopic, it is more about a human story. As long as making bio-pics is still of people’s interest, she thinks it is no problem at all. Because there are a lot of heroes in real life, Taapsee mentioned that they should be honored on the screens and the nation, at least, should be aware of the treasure that they have.

On being asked which is easier for her to do between real-life and fictional characters, she answered that depicting biopics is harder than making fictional tales.

We are surely all looking forward to her future projects!
