Taapsee’s next film with Anubhav Sinha is titled ‘Mulk’

After delivering an impactful performance in ‘PINK’, Taapsee Pannu surely seems to have become director’s favourite. She is currently busy shooting for her next film ‘Judwaa 2’ with Varun Dhawan and Jacqueline Fernandez. It is being directed by David Dhawan. Apart from this, there were reports that Taapsee has been signed by the ‘Gulaab Gang’ director, Anubhav Sinha, for his next. We have an update on the same. This film of Taapsee has received a title. It would be called ‘Mulk’ and it will also feature Rishi Kapoor.

As per reports, this movie would be extensively shot in the Lucknow and Varanasi and Taapsee’s character would be that of a daughter-in-law. It is a social thriller inspired by true events, and would narrate the story of a daughter-in-law who helps her family regain their honour, which is lost due to a controversy.

Talking about the film, director Anubhav Sinha quoted to Bollywood Hungama, “I am doing a thriller after 10 years and this will be quite different from what I have attempted in the past. I’m returning to my roots after so many years. It’s my way of giving back to my hometown and it feels emotionally satisfactory. The plot of the film revolves around true life events. I am yet in the process of closing in on a few more actors.”

He also took to this Twitter handle to share, “From a Superhero to Vulnerable Human Beings in a small town in my country. #MULK A space I grew up in but never visited as a film maker.”

Taapsee surely seems to be on a roll! Apart from this, there is no more film called ‘Tadka’ in her kitty. She would be sharing screen space with Ali Fazal in this film which is being directed by Prakash Raj. (Also Read: Taapsee Pannu just surpassed Kangana Ranaut! DETAILS INSIDE)
