Taapsee and Mithali are seen cutting cake and making merry on Mithali’s birthday. The actress also shared some pictures with the captain on her insta stories.
The skipper who turned 37 today achieved a remarkable feat by becoming the first woman cricketer to complete 20 years in the international cricket earlier in October.
Apart from Shabaash Mithu, Taapsee also has Rashmi Rocket. The biopic is based on athlete Rashmi from Gujarat.
On the work front, Taapsee was last seen alongside Bhumi Pednekar in ‘Saand Ki Aankh’, a film based on the lives of India’s two sharpshooters – Chandro and Prakashi Tomar, who took up shooting in their 60s.
