Actor Taapsee Pannu has penned a note for aspiring actors, recalling the short film that changed her life, and the course of her career as an actress. The 2015 Akshay Kumar-starrer movie 'Baby' featured the actress playing Shabana. She later went on to play the titular role in its prequel two years later. Sharing two posters of 'Baby', Taapsee wrote, “Dear actors, Number of minutes don't matter, the impact u leave with what u do in those minutes ...... matters :). 7 minutes that changed the direction of tide for me FOR GOOD. Yours truly, Naam Shabana.”
Pannu played a short yet pivotal role in the movie. Her character was so loved, she reprised the role in 2017's 'Naam Shabana' which marked the return of the majority of the 'Baby' cast. Akshay Kumar reacted to her post saying, “Absolutely! Always make the most of what you have...proud of you and your onwards and upwards journey :).”
'Naam Shabana' went on to become a big success, establishing her a force to reckon. She later reunited with Akshay in the 2019 film 'Mission Mangal'. Taapsee's 2016 film 'Pink' also garnered a lot of attention as she made herself visible against her co-star of the movie, Amitabh Bachchan.
On the work front, Taapsee has several films in her kitty. She is currently working on 'Rashmi Rocket' which will feature her as an athlete. She will also be seen as cricketer Mithali Raj in her biopic 'Shaabash Mithu'. Pannu also plays the lead in 'Haseen Dillruba', and 'Loop Lapeta'.
