Taapsee Pannu who is looking forward to the release of her upcoming film Mission Mangal has been leaving no stone unturned to promote her film. In one such media interaction, Taapsee expressed her desire to star in the biopic of former External Affairs Minister and BJP stalwart Sushma Swaraj who passed away last night due to a massive heart attack.

During the media interaction, when Taapsee was asked whether she would like to essay the role of Sushma Swaraj if a biopic is made on her life, the actress replied in the affirmative and said, “I would love to play the role of Sushma ji in her biopic. I have always looked up to her since my childhood. I admired her tremendously. She was a great orator and although I was never interested in politics whenever she used to speak in the Parliament, I always stopped to listen to her speech. She was a great human being and I will always be her fan. If given a chance to play her onscreen I will not let go of the opportunity. Who will not like to do a biopic on such an eminent personality?”
