Kangana Ranaut starrer Manikarnika which has been in the news for all its recent controversies seems to be on the right track for the biopic.
Recently, Ankita Lokhande, who plays the important character of Jhalkari Bai, a trusted aide of Queen of Jhansi, strongly endorsed Kangana Ranaut as her ‘new captain’ and is extremely elated to be shooting for the first song of Manikarnika.
She took to her social media and posted this:
Manikarnika is a biopic on Queen of Jhansi, Laxmi Bai. When the makers of Manikarnika saw the rough cut of the film, they were upset and hence asked Kangana to take over. Kangana was given the option of taking on as a director or letting the project being shelved. She agreed and decided to lead the unit. The producers had full liberty to get a new director on board but they didn’t as they had full trust in Kangana and her dedication for the project.
Even the action director Nick Powell has been called back to reshoot certain portions too. The patchwork too has been going on smoothly. All in all, we are in for a treat on January 25, 2019, in the form of Manikarnika.
