Taapsee Pannu is all set to play the Indian women’s cricket team captain Mithali Raj in her next film, titled Shabaash Mithu.
The film will be directed by Rahul Dholakia, best known for making films like Raees, Lamhaa and Parzania. It will release on February 5.
‘I have always been asked who’s your favourite male cricketer but you should ask them who their favourite female cricketer is. The statement that made every cricket lover pause and introspect that do they love the game or the gender playing it. @M_Raj03 you are a ‘Game Changer’,’ Taapsee captioned the poster.
Shabaash Mithu’s script is written by Priya Aven, who works as a creative director at Viacom 18 Studios.
