Tamannaah Bhatia addresses Annu Kapoor's remark
Tamannaah said, "I think that as a creative person, our most important task is to listen. And when we listen, what we keep and what we filter is very important to understand."
"And because you are also a woman, you can understand that if we start giving importance to such things, then perhaps we will be able to move forward in life," she said.
She further added, "So I don't even see these things. I focus on my work. I focus on what I want to make. I focus on my acting career."
