    Taapsee Pannu and Kangana Ranaut had a public feud in 2019 and 2020. Recently, Taapsee spoke about her equation with Kangana and revealed that she has never met the actor. She also opened up about the possibility of joining politics.

    ‘People can decide who comes from where’

    Speaking about her feud with Kangana, Taapsee said that the way they speak about each other is a reflection of their upbringing. She told , “I haven't met her. I didn't meet her before when these so-called issues started. I haven't met her now as well. My opinion on her is reflective of my upbringing and my way of talking, my way of perceiving things and hers… she stands by hers. So, I think that's enough for everybody to look and decide who comes from where."

    Taapsee Pannu on joining politics

    Taapsee also spoke about the possibility of entering politics. She said, “I am too honest and vulnerable for this. Also, I want to do a few more films. I am not at all considering joining and I don't have the DNA for that.” Taapsee also shared that she takes an interest in political issues and is vocal about them as an educated citizen rather than approaching such matters from a political standpoint.

    Taapsee-Kangana feud

    Taapsee and Kangana's feud started in 2019. It intensified after Kangana's sister, Rangoli Chandel, called Taapsee a “sasti copy” of Kangana on social media. The exchange further escalated in 2020 after Kangana referred to Taapsee and others as “B-grade actresses” and “needy outsiders” amid debates around nepotism and industry politics.

    Taapsee, however, has maintained that despite their differences, she is ready to be friends with the actor.

    Speaking on Shubhankar Mishra’s YouTube channel in an old interaction, Taapsee said, “I don’t know if I ever fought. A fight happens when two people clash. I never clashed. You tell me — have I ever said even a single line against her? Her sister called me a ‘cheap copy.’ She said that since I don’t earn as much money as her, that makes me cheap. If she is such a brilliant actress, I have no problem being called her copy. You can take out any statement of mine – I haven’t said anything against her.”

    Taapsee Pannu's work front

    On the work front, Taapsee was last seen in Gandhari, an action thriller directed by Devashish Makhija. The film follows a mother's relentless pursuit to find and rescue her kidnapped daughter, exploring themes of revenge and redemption amidst her harrowing journey.
