Tuesday Trivia: On Taapsee Pannu`s birthday, we revisit the time the actress shared the history behind the spelling of her name

Taapsee Pannu
Taapsee Pannu has an uncommon name. However, did you know she uses a different spelling for screen from the one on her passport? The actress has an interesting story behind the evolution of her name coming to be spelled as Taapsee Pannu. In an old interview with Mid-Day, the actress said that her name is spelt `Tapasee` on all her legal documents, including her passport.
Taapsee feels that the spelling of her name in itself is a trivia in her life. Talking about the history behind her name and its spelling, Taapsee had shared, "By the time I was old enough to say, `Dad, please don`t do this to me,` it was too late. T-A-P-S-I, for him, in numerology, wasn`t good enough. It needed to have two Es, and an extra A, for some weird reason. The logic he gave me was that if we write Tapsee, it will be Tap-si and Tapasee in his head sounded more like Taapsee".
