After impressing the audience with her role in movies like Judwaa 2, Manmarziyaan, Pink and Naam Shabana, actress Taapsee Pannu is currently shooting for Saand Ki Aankh, a film based on the world’s oldest sharpshooters Chandro and Prakashi Tomar, and the actor says she decided to do the project as the story touched her heart. Along with the Pink actress, the film will also feature Sonchiriya star Bhumi Pednekar. Recently in an interview, Taapsee opened up about her role in the film, and how she cannot relate to anything in her character.

The film tells the story of the two women from Uttar Pradesh, played by Taapsee and Bhumi Pednekar. While Chandro has more than 30 national championships to her credit, Prakashi is said to be world's second oldest shooter. The actress said, "When I do a film I relate to one thing in a character to start off but here there is not a single thing I can relate to. My age, background, the language is not similar, I am not fond of shooting as well. Everything is alien to me. But it is a beautiful script that touched my heart and I couldn't say no to it. If this film works then people will remember us for life or maybe they will laugh at us."
The actor said her role in the film is a taxing character both physically and mentally. Taapsee further added, "I spent a few weeks learning shooting. The most taxing thing was to get the body language of a 60-65-year-old woman right. They are Haryanvi but based out of UP, there is an interesting crossover of Haryanvi and Hindi of UP. “
