Actor Taapsee Pannu’s recent confrontations with the paparazzi has had the social media calling her “dusri Jaya Bachchan” or “Jaya Bachchan lite”.However, for Taapsee, it’s not criticism but complement.”I think that’s a compliment.

People are being too kind by comparing me to her,” Taapsee told News18.’Grew up with questionable background’: Kangana Ranaut hits back at Taapsee Pannu over ‘upbringing’ jibe, calls her ‘sasti copy’While Taapsee has been called out multiple times for her “rude” behaviour with paparazzi even claiming to not enjoy photographing her, the Pink actor has clarified that she just likes to set our boundaries right.”To be honest, I really don’t care. I know that I haven’t ever raised my voice at anybody. That’s not what I do. I don’t abuse anybody. My boundaries are very clear. And a woman with very clear boundaries is very intimidating. My sense of right and wrong is very clear in front of them and they don’t like that. I’m supposed to be a little more submissive and extra polite. I, in fact, am shouted at by them. I don’t like that,” she said.’Objectionable, inappropriate’: Rajasthan BJP leader demands removal of ‘Shoorveer’ song from ‘Mirzapur The Movie’Why is Taapsee being called “Jaya Bachchan lite”?The Jaya Bachchan reference stems from the incidents involving the SP MP’s friction with paparazzi.Jaya, at multiple occasions, have schooled paparazzi for asking inappropriate questions and photographing her without her permission.Talking about her relationship with the paparazzi at an event last year, Jaya said, “It is strange.

I come from media! My father was a journalist. I have tremendous respect for such people.”She added, “Magar ye jo baahar drain pipe pant, gande-gande kapde pehen ke haath me mobile leke, they think that just because they have a mobile they can take your picture, and say what they want?

Just because they can go through social media?”Watch | Tara Sutaria snaps at paparazzi, pushes camera away in viral videoMeanwhile, Taapsee is not the only one who is having friction with paparazzi.
