Trailer of Taapsee Pannu’s upcoming film ‘Rashmi Rocket’ is out, and the actress is beaming with gratitude for the love her fans have showered on her. The movie features Pannu essaying the role of a village girl who is also a noteworthy sprinter. However, in her race to become a national athlete, she undergoes gender testing that leaves her emotionally broken. She even gets banned when her body frame does not fit in the conventional definition of feminine. What follows is a fight against the athletics association to regain her lost respect and confidence.
Taapsee took to her Twitter account and shared a video featuring screenshots of various comments by haters mocking her look in the film. She captioned it, “Heartfelt thank you. From yours Truly. But there are many women who actually hear this daily for no fault of theirs. An ode to all the athletes who give their sweat and blood to the sport and their nation and still get to hear this. #RashmiRocket #AbUdneKaTimeAaGayaHai4”.
Directed by Akarsh Khurana, ‘Rashmi Rocket’ also stars Priyanshu Painyuli as an army man who’s in love with Rashmi, and Abhishek Banerjee who portrays a lawyer fighting her case of human rights violation.
