“This is going to be a riveting thriller. It’s Sujoy’s favourite genre and I am yet another time out of my comfort zone which I actually enjoy the most,” Taapsee said in a statement.

Taapsee, 30, said that she is going to explore a “new side” of herself with this character and film directed by Sujoy Ghosh. The film also stars Amitabh Bachchan and Taapsee is excited to share screen space with the megastar for the second time after Pink.

“When you are in safe hands of a brilliant filmmaker and an ace co-actor there is nothing to fear,” said Taapsee, who will be seen playing the role of an entrepreneur in the film.

She currently awaits the release of her forthcoming film Soorma, a biopic on hockey player Sandeep Singh, directed by Shaad Ali, who has also helmed hit films like Saathiya and Bunty Aur Babli.
