Kangana Missed A Controversial Film

Bollywood Queen Kangana Ranaut is known not only for her powerful performances but also for her bold statements which often land in numerous controversies. Kangana recently showed her power as Manikarinka-The Queen of Jhansi, a biopic on freedom fighter Jhansi Lakshmi Bai. However the controversy surrounding it is still fresh in the minds of movie lovers.

Kangana however moved ahead and is now starring in the biopic on former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Jayalalithaa titled Ammaa. Apart from it she is getting ready to star and direct her own biopic. In the midst of all this Kangana made another startling revelation.

She said she was offered the controversial film Padmaavat. It is known that Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Padmaavat starring Deepika Padukone, Ranveer Singh, Sushant Singh Rajput created a huge controversy. Fringe groups attacked the makers and the actors and threatened even to kill them alleging that they hurt the sentiments of the Rajputs.

Kangana speaking to scribes revealed that Bhansali and she met about the film and he even narrated the script and offered the role. She revealed, “Oh, yes. In fact, we had a brief meeting for Padmaavat (2018). He narrated me the script. There was this conversation, and I was doing Manikarnika then, so it didn’t go anywhere. But we had a brief narration. Before that as well, he wanted me to do the Ram-Leela song. He is a filmmaker who can leave strong impressions on you especially if you are a fresh mind.”
