Kangana Ranaut To Play 'Jhansi Ki Rani' Opposite Hugh Grant!?
- 8 years ago
Kangana Ranaut, who has proved that she is the Queen of Bollywood with her impeccable performances in her recent films, seems to have bagged a biopic, which might also star Hollywood actor Hugh Grant.
Buzz has it that Kangana has given her nod to Ketan Mehta's project, which will be a biopic on the life of the iconic Rani Laxmibai of Jhansi, also known as the 'Jhansi Ki Rani'. A source close to Kangana said that the project will be an Indo-British production, for which Kangana will undergo heavy-duty training in horse riding, sword-fighting and other warfare skills for almost a year, before she starts shooting. Confirming the news, Mehta said that he wanted to make a trilogy about the 1857 Sepoy Mutiny and that this film will be the second film in the trilogy after Mangal Pandey. The film might have Grant playing the role of General Hugh Rose, who expressed a grudging admiration for Rani Laxmibai's valour in battle.
Kangana will be next seen opposite Imran Khan in Nikhil Advani's Katti Batti.
