Looop Lapeta

Taapsee will step into Franka Potente's shoes for this remake and will romance Tahir Raj Bhasin in same. The remake of this German cult classic is a thriller-comedy that's modified to suit the Indian taste. Speaking about her new outing, the actress in her interaction with Mumbai Mirror said, "Savi is a quirky, insane addition to my repertoire. I love how an iconic film like Run Lola Run has been adapted for the Indian milieu without losing its edge. More excitingly, it’s been laced with amazingly cheeky straight-faced humour. It’s cool in the truest sense of the word and as bold thematically as it is stylistically. I can’t wait to get started." The film will hit the screens on January 29, 2021.

Shabaash Mithu

Taapsee is already learning the nuances of a cricketer to step into Mithali Raj's shoes for Shabaash Mithu. The actress has already started prepping for the biopic and the film will hit the screens on February 5, 2021.

Taapsee will collaborate with Chhapaak actor Vikrant Massey and Harshvardhan Rane for her next intriguing outing. Explaining the unconventional pairing in the film, a source close to the project said, "The makers thought a fresh pair would work in the film's favour as it will keep the mystery element intact since there will be no preconceived notions about them as a couple." Haseen Dillruba will release on September 18, 2020.

Rashmi Rocket

Rashmi Rocket is a story that revolves around an athlete. It's about a girl who achieves and conquers in her field despite all the adversities.
