Taapsee Pannu On Game Over: “Playing Such Roles Surely Takes A Toll On Me”

Actress Taapsee Pannu, who has been performing intense characters in films including “Mulk“, “Badla” and the latest “Game Over“, says such roles take a toll on her mind and change her mental fabric a little bit.

“I really had to psyche myself out to understand the character who has gone through a dark incident and how her body and mind reacts after one year. She is traumatised. It was quite exhausting emotionally and playing such roles surely takes a toll on me,” Taapsee said here.

Directed by Ashwin Saravanan and produced by Reliance Entertainment, the film has released in three languages – Tamil, Telugu and Hindi. This is the first time Taapsee has played a character in which she is wheelchair-bound for a substantial part of the story.

Recounting the experience of her films “Pink” and “Badla”, in which she shared screen space with megastar Amitabh Bachchan, Taapsee said: “In ‘Badla’ also I had a very different character to play. Perhaps that is why after every film, my mental fabric changes a bit.

“I think it is only natural. Usually, I shoot most of my films at one stretch and that is why for that time being, I become someone closer to my character…even in real life. That is why actors like us are little different, our approach towards reality is different from others.
