Muslim lawyer pats Taapsee's back for doing socially-relevant films

Taapsee Pannu has been garnering rave reviews for her role in 'Soorma' and even more appreciation for taking on a socially-relevant topic in 'Mulk'. The Anubhav Sinha directorial doesn’t shy away from talking about islamophobia.

When the trailer of Mulk released, a comman man named Vasid Shaikh, who isn’t just a Muslim citizen but also a criminal lawyer, decided to voice his opinion on the trailer. He appreciated the director for choosing such a strong topic and was all praises for Taapsee for taking on this strong role.

Here's the video -

This is what Taapsee had to say about the video, “When we made the film we knew we are going to get as much love as hatred on social media. We were kind of prepared for it. But the kind of appreciation coming from this lawyer, a professional who probably would’ve seen such cases in his career, makes it really special. In Mulk we have tried to raise the idea of humanity over any religion and what is the true nationalism and it’s only a matter of few days before we see how our audience responds. This particular video was very encouraging."
