Versatile Indian actress Taapsee Pannu is geared up for the release of her upcoming Hindi film Shabaash Mithu. Fans of the actress are excited to see her in a never-seen-before character in her forthcoming Mithu Shabaash movie. It is known that the actress often chooses women-centric roles. Now, she is all set to do a film on a female cricketer.
Currently, Taapsee is busy promoting her upcoming film. In a recent interview, the actress opened up about her fight for equal opportunities. When asked about the condition of heroines and actresses in films, the actress also revealed how budgets showcase the disparity between male-oriented and female-oriented films.
Shabaash Mithu movie:
The actress compared the budget of her movie to the salary of A-lister male actor in Bollywood. She said, “Shabaash Mithu is my biggest budget film as a protagonist but still the budget of my entire film is equivalent to the budget of an A-lister (male actor)’s salary.”
Elaborating on it, Taapsee added, “And A-listers means I am talking about A-listers who are not at the top of the ladder. I am talking about those who are a little lower down the ladder. Their salary is the budget for my entire film. The situation is still like that. So, there is still a long way for us to go.”
Speaking of Shabaash Mithu, the film is inspired by the life of female cricketer Mithali Raj and her journey of dreaming of being a cricketer amidst a male-dominated sport. Directed by Srijit Mukherjee, the film releases on July 15.
