Taapsee Pannu has solidified her presence in the film industry with her unique selection of roles. Presently engrossed in promoting her upcoming film, Phir Aayi Haseen Dillruba, the actor delved into the challenges she faces in accessing Bollywood’s inner circles. In a recent interview, she highlighted how her disinterest in attending late-night parties diminishes her opportunities to secure roles in major productions.

Speaking to Zoom, Taapsee said, “Bollywood camps are there. The nepotism debate that we talk about is the problem of getting access. If a big budget films is being made, I am sure nobody would disrespect me by saying I am not fit for the role, but I might not get the part because my name will not be brought up as other actors, who are part of camps, they would be recommended for the part. The harsh reality is that big films is about access and I don’t have that access to make it into that room.”

She added, “Parties is also a way to get into camps. You socialize with people, you become friends and then you work with them. That’s fine but to get to that position you have to go through this process of partying after 10 and that is so draining for me. I can’t sustain it. That’s not me. So, I might as well chose the harder way to do a lot of films and a lot of good work.”

In addition to Phir Aayi Haseen Dillruba, Taapsee will grace the screen in Woh Ladki Hai Kahaan? alongside Pratik Gandhi and Khel Khel Mein with Akshay Kumar and Vaani Kapoor.
