Actress Taapsee Pannu, who has been roped in as the brand ambassador for snack brand Kurkure, says it is imperative to celebrate progressive thinking amongst women as it has kept them motivated to break barriers.
The snack brand has come up with a new tagline "Khayal toh Chatpata hai", which celebrates progressive thinking that young Indian homemakers bring in to traditional Indian families.
"Indian homemakers have been strong torch bearers for bringing about progressive changes in their family lives and the society at large. I strongly believe that it is imperative to celebrate this progressive thinking amongst women, that has kept them motivated to break barriers and pursue careers and passions," Taapsee said in a statement.
The Naam Shabana actress says she sees the association as another opportunity to continue to lend her voice to conversations that represent the modern Indian women.
