Taapsee Pannu is riding high on the success of her new courtroom drama, Assi, and has been candid about her journey in the film industry.
In a recent interaction, Taapsee stated that Tamil cinema did not offer her the kind of performance-driven roles that Telugu cinema did, which she believes is one of the reasons she enjoys greater popularity among Telugu audiences.
She also made headlines recently for recalling an uncomfortable experience during one of her early Telugu films, where she was allegedly asked to wear padded bras to enhance her screen appearance.
The comment sparked fresh debate online. Despite past challenges, Taapsee says she values the opportunities that were given by Telugu cinema helped shape her career trajectory.
