Taapsee Pannu Makes SHOCKING Comment On Her Fights With Paparazzi: 'Appeasing Them Won't Get Me Films'

Taapsee Pannu has opened up about her repeated arguments with the paparazzi. In a recent interview, the actress shared that she does not believe in appeasing photographers because it will not get her work. She addressed them as “so-called media” and argued that people are also more interested in negative or sensational news rather than something positive.

“Click kaise karoge tum? Mujhe batao achhi baaton pe kaun click karta? Mujhe batao tumne last news kaun si achhi pe click kar dia ho? Ab ye wali news zyada sensational hai. (How will you click on the news then? Tell me who clicks on positive news? When was the last time you clicked on a positive news? Now, this kind of news is more sensational). ‘She’s being nasty and rude to paparazzi’ so everyone is like, ‘Kya ho gaya, kya ho gaya, dekhna padega’ (what happened? let’s see). So that is more exciting for an audience,” she told Fever FM.

“Mujhe ye cheezein picturein laa ke nahi de rahi (These things aren’t fetching me films). My films speak for themselves. So I don’t have to appease a section of so-called media, I don’t even call them direct media because they’re serving their vested interest ki koi humare portal par click kar de bas (that someone just clicks on their portal). I don’t call them media. Media is not supposed to desperately put out lines or videos jiss pe bas click karna pade (that are clickbait),” the actress added.

Taapsee further mentioned that she wants the paparazzi to respect her privacy.

In December 2023, a video of Taapsee went viral on social media in which she was seen getting irritated after she saw a paparazzi standing in front of her car’s door. Taapsee requested the paparazzi to move. “Please move otherwise you will say ‘dhakha lag gaya (you got pushed),” Taapsee said as she tried to wade through the paparazzi. When they refused to move, Taapsee patiently pleaded. “Please hatt jao, please hatt jao, please hatt jao,” she added before the cameramen moved and made way for her.

Meanwhile, on the work front, Taapsee Pannu is currently gearing up for the release of Phir Aayi Hasseen Dillruba. The film, which also stars Vikrant Massey and Sunny Kaushal will be released on Netflix on August 9.
