Taapsee appreciated Franka’s gesture and wrote, “This makes it special looooooop number of times! Thank you, Franka! It’s launch day for #LooopLapeta & here we have the OG Savi, loooped along to win our hearts 💚♾🧡.”

Taapsee is quite excited for her latest film. Talking about the process of making Looop Lapeta, Taapsee told indianexpress.com in an earlier interview that it was like “college ka experimental cinema” and that it gave her quite a kick. She said, “The cast and crew were filled with so much ‘josh’ and passion, we all wanted to make something ‘zabardast’. It also helps when you don’t take things too ‘heavy-duty’, and make a film while having fun. That vibe is reflecting in our film.”

Looop Lapeta also stars Tahir Raj Bhasin. Directed by Aakash Bhatia, the film is streaming on Netflix.
