Taapsee Pannu has come up with a better way to “welcome” the monsoon than the rest of us. While most of us are sitting by the window and waiting for the “first rain shower”, the actress has already put on her travel shoes and embarked on a monsoon getaway. Well, Taapsee is enjoying the blissful weather of Uttarakhand's Ranikhet. The actress recently shared a video on her Instagram Stories. From the looks of the clip, Taapsee seems to have recorded it from the balcony of her stay in Ranikhet. The clip shows the panoramic view of the hill station. We can see the Uttarakhand town enveloped with a cloudy sky, while the lush green nature and the windy weather made for a perfect view. Sharing the video of the gorgeous scenic picture, Taapsee wrote, “Ready to welcome first rain shower!” The rain gods didn't take long to bless Taapsee Pannu with the first shower. We say this, as in the next Instagram Stories Taapsee shared a video showing the arrival of rain. Along with the video, Taapsee wrote, “Here it comes!”
