Taapsee Pannu on Pink's success: The overwhelming response to my role is too much to handle

Three years after she made her Bollywood debut with the successful David Dhawan comedy, Chashme Baddoor, Taapsee Pannu has blossomed into a star with the rave reviews she has been receiving for her latest film, Pink. Taapsee has been able to make her impact on the viewers despite Amitabh Bachchan's formidable presence.

A bit overwhelmed by the Box Office response to the film over its first weekend and the positive reviews coming her way, a befuddled Taapsee says, "Frankly speaking, it hasn't seeped in as yet because we have been promoting the film so crazily that I have just had half-a-day break between shootings of late."

The industry seems to have already accepted Taapsee; she has already moved on to her next film -- Naam Shabana, which is the Neeraj Pandey produced sequel to her 2015 hit, Baby. Taapsee points out, "I have just joined the sets of Naam Shabana on September 19. So the positive reaction to Pink hasn't seeped in yet. It's almost so good that you don't want to believe that something so good can actually happen. I have gotten tweets and messages from random people; and not even a single tweet has been average. So many people have messaged me thanking me for doing this role because it has given them a lot of courage."
