I resembled Preity and had to live up to that expectation: Taapsee Pannu

Taapsee, who appeared as a guest on cricketer Shikhar Dhawan's debut talk show, said: "Many thought that I was a new version of Preity Zinta. That was the reason I got offers in Bollywood. She has a very positive energy, and you know it better than me because you must have interacted with her more. I have only seen her on TV or the big screen."

She added, "I think the category of Preity Zinta is someone who can be lively and be with brains. I felt like I had to live up to that reputation for which they brought me into the industry... because of her name. So, I always put in some effort to be like her."
