Taapsee Pannu has etched her name in Bollywood, as one of the most versatile actresses of her generation. Time and again, the diva has proven her acting mettle, with successful films like Pink, Dunki, Haseen Dilruba, Badla, Thappad, Naam Shabana, Manmarziyaan and many others.

In an interview with Shikhar Dhawan on his talk show, Dhawan Karenge, Taapsee Pannu narrated an interesting anecdote about her career in films and surprisingly mentioned how she was brought into the showbiz world, due to her exceeding resemblance with Preity Zinta. Adding how she had to, in a certain way, live up to the reputation of the senior actress, Taapsee shared:
“I was first brought into Bollywood because I share a resemblance with Preity Zinta. She has a very good energy and you know it well. The aura of Preity ma’am is very lively and she seems very intelligent. I felt like I had to live up to her reputation as I was brought into the industry because of her name. So, I always put in an effort to be like her.”
