The actress we are talking about is none other than Taapsee Pannu. Taapsee has earned a lot of fame from South to Bollywood.
Taapsee Pannu did her schooling from Mata Jai Kaur Public School in Ashok Vihar and studied Computer Science and Engineering from Guru Teg Bahadur Institute of Technology, Hari Nagar. She worked as a software engineer before joining modeling.
During her modelling days, Taapsee Pannu did ads for brands like Reliance Trends, Red FM 93.5, Unistyle Image, Coca-Cola, Motorola, Pantaloons, PVR Cinemas and Standard Chartered Bank. However, after a point, she got bored of modelling and then decided to pursue a career in acting.
After this, Taapsee started her acting career with South films. She made her South debut with K. Raghavendra Rao’s Telugu romantic musical Jhummandi Naadam. The actress got three offers even before the release of the film. Her next film Aadukalam marked her debut in Tamil cinema. Her acting in the film was highly appreciated by critics as well as audiences. However, her next few films, including Mr. Perfect, Veera, Mogudu, Vandan Vendran, Gundello Godari and Shadow, failed at the box office and she was also given the tag of “unlucky charm”.
After this, Taapsee turned to Bollywood and made her debut in Hindi cinema with David Dhawan’s comedy film ‘Chashme Baddoor’. Although this film received negative reviews, it was successful at the box office.
After this, the actress did many films including ‘Judwaa 2’, ‘Dunki’, ‘Baby’, ‘Pink’, ‘Badla’. However, in her 11-year career in Bollywood, the actress has given a total of 9 films and she has not been able to give any solo hit.
Despite not being able to give any solo hit, Taapsee is called a star and she charges in crores. The actress reportedly charged Rs 11 crore for her role in Donkey opposite Shah Rukh Khan.
On the other hand, Taapsee recently revealed that she spends Rs 1 lakh every month on her diet. She revealed in an interview with Lallantop, “My diet changes with every film – it depends on which film I am doing, and where I am in my life. After every four or five years, your body also changes like metabolism. In this profession, most of us need a professional advice on which food is best for us, depending on which city or country we are in and local produce, we are told what we should eat. It takes a lot of detailing to create a diet plan. This is the only investment that is needed in my profession and it is about 1 lakh per month.”
Let us tell you that the actress lives in a house worth Rs 10 crore and she had a secret marriage with her long time boyfriend Mathias Bo this year.
