The trailer of Taapsee Pannu's Thappad released a few days ago and the movie has kicked a storm raising questions is slap jusitified in love?. The trailer shows Taapsee as a simple and loving housewife but her life turns upside down after he husband slaps her due to some issue. Friends, and relatives ask her to reconcile but she insists on taking the matter to court and seek justice affirming the fact that the slap is not justified. The audience gave a thunderous response to the trailer. 

Union Cabinet Minister also gave a positive review to the trailer and hailed the film, saying, "How many have heard “aurat ko hi adjust karna padta hai? “How many think “ki maar pitai sirf gareeb auraton ke hi pati karte hai” How many believe “ki educated aadmi kabhi haath nahi uthata” How many tell their girls their daughter in laws“ koi baat nahi beta aisa to humare saath bhi hua lekin dekho aaj kitne khush hai. I might not support the political ideology of the director or may disagree with some actors on some issues but this is a story that I will definitely watch and hope people watch it with their families. It’s not ok to hit a woman ... not even a slap ... not even JUST one slap.", she wrote.
