While having a conversation with Rajeev Masand at the 10th Jagran Film Festival, Taapsee Pannu said, “I remember Captain Marvel released along with Badla. After I saw Captain Marvel trailer, I told my sister, ‘Had I done this, it would have been something else.” Well, we would love to see this happen too. I mean…this is something we are all rooting for!

The 31-year-old actor revealed that she is a diehard fan and also has a huge crush on Iron Man, famously played by Robert Downey Jr in the MCU. Now this is something most of us would relate to.

When Taapsee was asked on which film she wishes she had been a part of, Taapsee said she would have loved essay in Ayushmann Khurrana’s role in Article 15, which would have made it her second film with director Anubhav Sinha, who helmed  Mulk. “I don’t think I have that with female characters. I haven’t felt that if I played a particular female character, the film would turn out differently. But I loved Article 15, I thought I would’ve also done a great job had I done Ayushmann’s role,” she said, earning applause from the audience.
