The trailer for Anubhav Sinha's most recent film Thappad was released online on Friday. Featuring Taapsee Pannu in the lead role, Thappad recounts to the account of a lady who chooses to separate from her spouse after he slaps her.

The trailer starts with Taapsee in a gathering with her lawyers who can't understand why she needs a partition from her husband over 'only a slap'. They ask her if her in-law is raising a ruckus,f he has cheated on her if she has cheated on him because getting slapped is apparently not a good enough reason to leave one's spouse. In any case, Taapsee doesn't move.

The trailer at that point takes us to more joyful occasions when all was well between the couple. She thinks about his mom, prepares his lunch, plays the ideal spouse until he loses temper at a gathering one day and slaps her before everybody. The scene makes Taapsee acknowledge how the slap isn't a disconnected occurrence yet reflects how her husband never truly thought of her like an equivalent.

He is sorry to her, begs her to take him back, says how it was anything but a serious deal. Others, as well, support his stand. His mom discloses to Taapsee that ladies should accept a few things without a fight while Taapsee's mom is stressed over the 'divorcee' tag that will be given to her daughter. In spite of this, Taapsee holds fast and takes her divorce case to the court.

The cast additionally incorporates Ratna Pathak Shah, Manav Kaul, Dia Mirza, Tanvi Azmi, and Ram Kapoor. Thappad – delivered by Anubhav Sinha and Bhushan Kumar- – is booked to hit the screens on February 28.
