Kirti Kulhari and Taapsee Pannu
Taapsee Pannu has responded to Kirti Kulhari's claims of being "sidelined" during the promotion of their film Pink (2016). Taapsee stated that she was unaware of Kirti's feelings at the time, adding that she respects her co-star's emotions. Taapsee said, "If someone has felt a certain way, I'm sure there's a reason... I would have liked to speak to her at that point and ask if there was something I could do to make it better." She maintained that their professional relationship remained unchanged, even after working together again in Mission Mangal (2019).
