On Sunday, Smriti Irani gave a big shout out to the movie, as she shared the trailer of Anubhav Sinha directorial move on her Instagram handle.
Smriti Irani wrote, ‘How many have heard “aurat ko hi adjust karna padta hai“, How many think “ki maar pitai sirf gareeb auraton ke hi pati karte hai”, How many believe “ki educated aadmi kabhi haath nahi uthata”, How many tell their girls their daughter in laws“ koi baat nahi beta aisa to humare saath bhi hua lekin dekho aaj kitne khush hai”, I might not support the political ideology of the director or may disagree with some actors on some issues but this is a story that I will definitely watch and hope people watch it with their families. It’s not ok to hit a woman … not even a slap … not even JUST one slap’.
Take a look at her post:
Thappad, a movie which narrates the story of a happily married couple which turn sour as one night the husband, in front of guests, slaps the wife at the house party. After the incident, the wife decides to end the marriage and walk out of it.
Taapsee Pannu is playing the role of the protagonist in the movie Thappad. While speaking to a leading news agency, Panni said that the role of the wife was very “challenging” and “the character Amrita was suffocating for me in the end and I took it as a challenge.
After 15 days of shooting, I started feeling claustrophobic. It was tough for me to get out of my firebrand image and mind-space and get into the skin of this character”.
The movie Thappad stars Dia Mirza, Tanvi Azmi, Pavail Gulati, Kumud Mishra, Ratna Pathak Shah, and Manav Kaul and will hit the cinema halls on the 28th of February.
