It felt like the perfect fit for her. She also observed that while she has had to run in every other genre that she has been a part of, this would be her first out-and-out athlete’s tale. The human angle in the movie made it even more appealing to her. While the shooting of the film will be commencing this year itself, the release date of Rashmi Rocket is not yet finalised. As of now, Taapsee is prepared for her upcoming release Saand Ki Aankh, alongside Bhumi Pednekar which will be releasing on October 25, 2019.
