A throwback picture of Taapsee Pannu and SRK from Badla promotions.
Taapsee Pannu, who is all set to co-star with Shah Rukh Khan in Rajkumar Hirani's next project Dunki, shared a tweet, in which she wrote a quote from Shah Rukh Khan's 2007 film Om Shanti Om. Taapsee Pannu wrote: "Yes it's hard to make it till here, and it's harder when you are all by yourself but then a superstar once said "agar kisi cheez ko puri shiddat se chaaho toh puri kainaat usse tumse milane mein lag jaati hai" cheers to honesty, hard work and perseverance. Almost 10 saal lage but finally "All is Well" (If there is something that you want with your whole heart, then the universe helps you to attain that goal).
