In a recent interview with Raj Shamani on his YouTube channel, Taapsee talked about her collaboration with Amitabh Bachchan in films like ‘Pink’ and ‘Badla’.

Instead, he treated her like Abhishek Bachchan would, creating a comfortable and collaborative work environment.

While talking about Shah Rukh Khan, Taapsee spoke highly of the actor’s self-assurance and confidence. She considered herself fortunate to have spent a significant amount of time with SRK during the shoot. Taapsee attributed Shah Rukh Khan’s superstardom to his self-confidence, deep self-awareness, and extensive knowledge. She explained that SRK’s confidence stems from a strong understanding of his strengths and weaknesses, coupled with his well-read nature.

Taapsee also commended Shah Rukh Khan’s marketing skills, noting his adept use of tools to promote his brand. She highlighted his awareness of being the best in the industry and how it is complemented by his knowledge.

The actress is gearing up for the sequel to her well-accepted 2021 movie ‘Haseen Dillruba’ with Vikrant Massey.
