Taapsee Pannu Says That She Is Still Not Considered Among The Top 2–3 Heroines, Lack Of Acknowledgement Bothers Her

I wonder on what basis we consider an actor to be on the top list or the A-listers? The amount of money they are paid, the kind of projects they take on, or their acting skills. In India, I guess people go a lot on the actor’s look, especially among actresses this is considered more. Recently in an interview given by Taapsee Pannu, the actor raised some very valid questions on this and put out some very straightforward statements. Taapsee Pannu’s next movie Shabaash Mithu is a much-awaited project of hers and it revolves around the life of cricketer Mithali Raj. The actor in an interview talked about how many people still do not consider her among the top 2-3 actresses in the country even after her film choices.
