Bollywood actress Tapsee Pannu confronted her troll face-to-face in an episode of Troll Police. The show is hosted by Ranvijay Singha. Taapsee, who has established herself as one of Hindi cinema’s most promising actresses, celebrates her birthday on Sunday, August 1.
On the show, Tapsee said she is curious to understand the psychology of the people who attack her from behind the anonymity of the internet. In that episode, a man who had previously attacked the actor online was brought to the show, while she listened in. The actress said,”He follows me, knows everything about me. Now it’s my turn to find out more about him.” The troll, Ashish from Lucknow, told Rannvijay that he wants to go viral.
When Rannvijay asked him directly about the comments that he has posted for Taapsee, he denied it. Taapsee said, “It was quite a long comment Ashish, how could you forget? Shall I read it to you?” Taapsee then read out a comment posted by Ashish, in which he had criticised her dressing sense, and said that she was violating Indian traditions. “He follows me, knows everything about me.

During the conversation, Taapsee lost her cool and demanded that Ashish stop laughing and smiling while talking to her. “Naam Shabana dekhi hai? Khud kara hai Maine sab action (I’ve done all the action in Naam Shabana myself).” she said. Confronting him face to face, she said, “It’s humiliating to another level, after achieving so much as an independent woman, to be appreciated like this by the men of the society.” She walked out in anger, and later, Ashish apologised to her.
Meanwhile, on the work front, she has last seen in Vinil Mathew’s direction Haseen Dilruba. She has several films in the pipeline, including the sports biopic Shabaash Mithu, Loop Lapeta, Rashmi Rocket, and Anurag Kashyap’s Dobaaraa.
