Taapsee Thankful To David Dhawan For Commercial Start

Darpan News Desk IANS, 05 Apr, 2016 01:02 PM
    Looking back at the starting point of her career in Bollywood with "Chashme Baddoor" in 2013, actress Taapsee Pannu says she owes a lot to David Dhawan for seeing potential in her and giving her a chance. 
     
    The "Baby" actress reminisced about the movie as it clocked three years since its release on Tuesday. 
     
    Taapsee made a shift from southern cinema to Hindi filmdom with "Chashme Baddoor", which also stars Ali Zafar, Siddharth and Divyendu Sharma.
     
    "It was sheer good luck that such a successful director decided to work with younger people for the first time, and especially me who was a newcomer for Hindi industry," she said in a statement. 
     
    The actress added: "I still can't thank him enough for giving me a perfect start with a commercial entertainer which helped me get to masses. He didn't even audition me and went with his instinct after he met me once. I owe my kick-start to him." 
     
    Taapsee is now working on films like "Pink" with Amitabh Bachchan and "Ghazi" with Rana Daggubati.
