Mumbai: A video of Taapsee Pannu hitting back at trolls who asked to speak in Hindi at an event, has gone viral on the internet.
Taapsee was recently invited as a speaker at the International Film Festival of India in Goa.
The Mulk actress was interrupted by a guest member at the event while she was interacting with the audience.
The guest member asked her to speak in Hindi as she is a Hindi film actress. To which Taapsee replied that she can speak in Hindi for the entire session throwing a question at the audience whether all of them will understand Hindi.
She said: ", "Sir, main to pura Hindi me baat karsakti hoon, par kya yahan sabko Hindi samajh aayegi?"
Not only a Bollywood actress, but she is also a South Indian Film actress, Taapsee pointed out clearly. Does that imply she should speak in Tamil and Telugu too? she questioned.
She further added: "Main south Indian actress bhi hoon... Tamil aur Telugu main bhi baat karu?"
