Although there are rumours that the “Pink” star has been signed for the movie but she says that she is yet to read the script. The political unrest in the north-easternstates of India provoked Sharmila to go on a hunger strike.
On the charge of attempting suicide by means of a fast unto death in 2006 at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi, she has been arrested, released and then re-arrested from time to time. Latest of them being, Taapsee Pannu confirms she has been approached for Irom Sharmila’s biopic. She says she loves her fans, but they need to respect her privacy too. I have to analyse a lot of other things before I take that up. She even requested her production team, especially the film’s co-producer Shoojit Sircar, to allow her to dub her voice later.
But the producer strongly felt that the illness would add more authenticity to her role of a woman on trial.For those scenes, Taapsee had to look pale and sound exhausted. I don’t want to face backlash, which it will get if I do that role.
