This Twitter user probably thought he was complimenting Taapsee Pannu, but what came out was an absolutely sexist comment. “I love your body parts,” the user wrote to Taapsee. Instead of being infuriated by this sleazy tweet, the actress decided to tackle it with humour. She replied, “Wow! I like them too. BTW which is your favourite ? Mine is the cerebrum.”

What followed was a barrage of tweets slamming the man and supporting Taapsee. Some of the comments even matched Taapsee’s wit.
Terribly mean of you to boast about a body part which the troll doesn't have— sushant sareen (@sushantsareen) December 17, 2018
One user compared her wit with that of Shah Rukh Khan’s.
Just love how she handles everything let it be her troll or anything. @taapsee is like SRK when it comes to wit while replying on twitter.— Ashutosh Bajaj (@iamashubajaj) December 17, 2018
Taapsee, who has portrayed empowered female characters Manmarziyaan and Mulk, is not one to take negative comments lying down. She has time and again given it back to sexist tweets and criticism on social media. “Worst looking actress in Bollywood. Hope i don’t have to see her again. 2..3 movies more n she will be out of Bollywood,” a person had earlier written on Twitter. “But 3 toh already ho gayi (I have already got three).... #Mulk #Manmarziyaan and then #Badla and sorry to disappoint u but main already do aur sign kar chuki hu (I have already signed another two)..... thoda toh aur jhelna padega (you will have to bear with me some more),” she had replied.
The 31-year-old will next be seen in Mission Mangal, with Akshay Kumar, Vidya Balan, Sonakshi Sinha, Sharman Joshi and Kriti Kulhari. The film will present the story of the team behind India’s Mars Mission.
