Taapsee Pannu has been active on Twitter and doesn’t shy away from putting out her opinions in public. It’s undeniable that Twitter is one of the toxic places wherein people are too quick to pass a judgement and brutally troll anyone who has his or her own opinions about certain things. Taapsee has faced the brunt of people who haven’t agreed to her opinions but has kept her spirit high and has given them a piece of her mind with strong and witty responses.

Taapsee took to Twitter and shared why she stayed on the platform despite its toxicity. The actress tweeted, "There was something in me that made me stay here in spite of being one of the most toxic platforms of social media. Seeing the timeline filled with support being asked and selfless/agenda free help being offered makes me believe in the power of intuition once again. Beautiful."

This time around, people agreed with her reasons and didn’t troll her but in fact called her a role model and an inspiration as they do agree that the platform is filled with negativity.

In a recent interview, she talked about the effect of trolling on her family and told SpotboyE, “It does affect them because they are not part of the entertainment industry. They are not used to it. But it is a part of my life and they will have to get used to it. I have had conversations with my family on this matter."

However, she added that she won't stop expressing her views and told the entertainment website, "Somewhere, my voice counts. I guess I do command a certain power and influence. That’s why they want to shut me down. I don’t get triggered easily. When I do, I don’t stoop down to the level of the troll. I will never lose my dignity in replying. That’s the basic difference between me and the troll."

On the work front, the actor been shooting for her upcoming sports film, Shabaash Mithu. It is based on Indian cricketer Mithali Raj and Taapsee essays the titular role in the film.
