Taapsee Pannu will soon be seen in upcoming mystery thriller film “Haseen Dilruba”. However, the actress has revealed that she was not the first choice of the upcoming film. She said that the role came to her after all other options were exhausted.
“‘Haseen Dillruba’ was a film I had a very gut feeling about the day I heard the basic idea from (writer) Kanika (Dhillon). Unfortunately, I wasn’t the first choice for the film and it came to me after all their options were exhausted,” Taapsee said.
“The good old saying that, if it’s meant for you it will come to you stands true for this case. It’s not just a beautifully written mystery, it has such wonderful characters, which is candy in an actor’s hands,” she added.
Taapsee further added, “I am glad I got to experiment with my look and performance with this one because I am definitely not the go-to person for this kind of character conventionally, and we all love to take risks.”
The film also stars Vikrant Massey and Harshvardhan Rane. It is about a woman whose heart longs to live like the words captured in a novel, but finds herself entangled in the murder of her husband.
“I hope it surprises the audience as much as it surprised me when I heard it first. It was an enthralling experience shooting for,” Vikrant said.
“Taapsee and Vikrant, have one thing in common I could never make out if they were joking or if they were serious. I always had to look for tiny nuances to understand the pretext,” he added.
“Haseen Dilruba” is directed by “Hasee Toh Phasee”, helmer Vinil Mathew and will be released on Netflix.
