Taapsee Pannu says the biggest challenge in making Gandhari wasn’t the action,it was the budget.
She revealed that female-led action films often struggle to get the financial backing they need.
Writer Kanika Dhillon also wanted Gandhari to feel powerful without becoming a stereotypical “superwoman.”
The goal? Emotion, strength and action all in one character.
Gandhari is challenging more than just villains,it’s challenging industry norms.
