While of hype, the makers of Thappad had systematically worked on creating a buzz about the socially relevant and well-crafted film over the past week or so, by screening it for select audiences in Delhi and Mumbai.
The advantage that Sinha's film has it is limited budget, and also the fact that pre-release response has universally been positive about the content as well as the overall acting, particularly of lead star Taapsee.
The Anubhav Sinha-directorial has Taapsee as the protagonist who refuses to tolerate domestic violence in the name of love and relationships. The film also features Ratna Pathak Shah, Manav Kaul, Pavail Gulati, Dia Mirza, Tanvi Azmi, and Ram Kapoor in pivotal roles.
