MUMBAI MIRROR (May 15, 2019)

Taapsee Pannu has found a close friend in her Manmarziyaan co-star Vicky Kaushal and now, she’s endorsing him as “marriage material”. During their recent turn on a Colors Infinity show BFFs hosted by Neha Dhupia, the actress introduced Vicky by exclaiming, “All men are a**h*les but Vicky is the best”. She went on to reveal that they bonded on Whatsapp even before meeting each other during the shoot of their Anurag Kashyap directorial. “I was in my blue hair and she in her red hair and I don’t know for some reason we just hit it off straight away. One striking thing about her personality is that she is immensely transparent as a person and she is a great talker. And I am a great listener,” Vicky complimented Taapsee back.

While the actress went on to say that she doesn’t find Vicky hot, in a game of ‘hook up, marry, kill’ among Varun Dhawan, Abhishek Bachchan and Vicky, she said she would “hook up with Varun, kill Abhishek and marry Vicky as he is more marriage material.”

While on the topic of marriage, Vicky said that he is yet to feel like he has arrived as no one has asked him to dance at a wedding yet. What would it cost to get him to do it? “For all the dulhas and dulhans out there, one rupee,” he exclaimed.
