What impact films have on the audience and what are the moral responsibilities of actors and filmmakers has been a topic of discussion for a long time. However, this discussion started after the release of director Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s film Animal. In December last year, the issue gained momentum. Many people criticized the film, saying that it glorified hatred and violence against women. In an interview with Expresso, Taapsee Pannu has once again criticized Animal.

Taapsee said, “If I had read the script of Animal, I would have been as excited as Ranbir Kapoor… But, the difference is… when you read a script and when you see what you see, it is the director’s medium. When I am reading a script, I don’t know on which shot he is putting low angle and high BGM.” Taapsee further said, “I don’t see it through the script. It is only the director who can communicate through shot-taking and post-production. You visualize a certain scene and shot. A character, depending on how the scene is shot, will not be there on paper.”

Citing the example of the character she played in the film ‘Badla’, Taapsee said that she knew what she was signing up for, and she knew that she was going to play a deep character but it was a character that didn’t had a negative impact on people and their mind’. The actress said, “Nowhere in the entire film will you see them celebrating any wrong with me.”

Taapsee while talking about Ranbir’s film said, “It was a bit strange to hear applause and whistles in some scenes in Animal, where I did not like the character growing like this. It is completely wrong that we are praising such characters that dominate women” At the same time, Taapsee is in the news these days for her personal life.
