Anubhav Sinha’s Next Thappad Is One For International Women’s Day

While Article 15 continues  to  make waves, Anubhav Sinha has already  moved on to his  next.

 Reveals Sinha, “It’s a film called Thappad and it’s  a subject based on  women’s empowerment.I can’t reveal anything more,unless  you promise  not to write about it.”

As I am unable to make any such promise, Anubhav  says, “It’s my first subject based on   a female  protagonist.Tapsee Pannu plays the  lead. I became enamoured  of  the idea of working with her again after she  did Mulk with me.She is so comfortable to work with and such a powerful actress without  overdoing anything.Tapsee and  Ayushmann Khurrana are  my favourites.”

Regrettably  Ayushmann  does  not  feature  in  Thappad. We would have liked  to  Anubhav and Ayushmann work together again  after Article 15.

“There  is no scope for him in Thappad. Most of  cast will comprise women actors.This film is my homage to womanhood. It will release  on  the occasion of International Women’s Day 2020. All I can tell  you on-record is, it will be even more hardhitting than Mulk and Article 15.”

Take that.
