Speculation is day by day increasing on how many in Bollywood will come in support of Kangana Ranaut's Manikarnika, The Queen of Jhansi directed by Krish.

It is well known that Karni Sena and other Brahmin organisations accused the makers of Manikarnika to insulting Brahmins by showing Rani of Jhansi in a disgusting and deplorable manner. They even issued threats that if makers do not delete those scenes showing the relation between Jhansi Lakshmi Bai and the Britisher, they will not let release the film.

Till now none from Bollywood came in supoort of Manikarnika condemning the threats. Unlike many Bollywood celebrities who came in instant support of Deepika Padukone and entire cast and crew of Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Padmavati when it faced similar threats from various quarters. 

But during that time Kangana refused to support Deepika as she was peeved at the way Bollywood discriminated her when she was at loggerheads with star hero Hrithik Roshan. Many say Kangana not supporting Padmavat did not affect at all as entire Bollywood supported Deepika and Bhansali has immense stardom. 

This is unlike the stardom of Kangana Ranaut and Krish. Under these circumstances it has to be seen how many in B-Town will come in support of Kangana's Manikarnika.
