Taapsee Pannu

Indian actor discussing her career priorities and film choices

“So, it is a conscious choice that I have made of choosing my filmography over temporary reward. Because this filmography is going to stay. Time will change. Today, there are films like this. Tomorrow, there will be films like that. Earlier, there were other kinds of films. But my filmography won't change. It will stay the same.”

“And I think it's fine. I am okay being someone who has probably not had 1000 crore, 5000 crore films. 100 crore films also for that matter. I have not really had many in my career. I am fine with that.”
