Thappad Trailer: Twitterati Calls Taapsee Pannu Starrer A SLAP On Films Like Kabir Singh That Normalise Abusive Relationships

Taapsee Pannu is back again with yet another film with a powerful social message and what looks like an outstanding performance by her. The hard-hitting trailer of Tapsee Pannu starrer Thappad just released a while ago, and gave a glimpse into what the film is going to be like. Taapsee, who faces a slap from her husband at a house party, chooses to fight against it, wanting to divorce him, all the while, the society makes her realize it was ‘just one slap.’ The trailer struck a chord with those who had slammed Shahid Kapoor starrer Kabir Singh and Arjun Reddy for glorifying abusive relationships.

Not only were people impressed with Tapsee Pannu’s performance, they thought this film is exactly the kind of movies that will echo loud and clear in face of films such as Shahid Kapoor starrer Kabir Singh. They called it a tight slap on Kabir Singh, Arjun Reddy, that glorifies violence in the name of love. While one Tweet read, “Arjun Reddy and Kabir Singh found shaking in their boots. #Thappad,” another tweet read, “Saw the trailer of @anubhavsinha’s #Thappad and there’s no other way of saying this — it’s a tight slap on Kabir Singh, the Vanga dude-bros and everything they stand for.” Check out some of the Twitter reactions:

Compelling argument this. Can seem like a counter view of Kabir singh. This line destroys our default mindset of normalising abuse and justifying it. #Thappad https://t.co/gAiXelfD4W
