When it comes to content driven movies, Kangana Ranaut always comes first to perform. While the actor is phenomenal with her performance, she’s stepping into foot of director and producer too.
After being a co-director for the film Manikarnika-The Queen Of Jhansi, wherein the actress also played the lead, Kangana will now be directing Aparajitha Ayudhya. The film will be written by KV Vijayendra Prasas which will revolve around the famous Ram Mandir Case.
Kangana, in a statement revealed, “The plan wasn’t for me to direct the film. I started it as a project that I worked on from the concept level. I wanted to produce it and rope in another director for it. I was quite busy at that time to even think of direction. However, the script that KV Vijayendra Prasad shared was that of a film set on a large canvas, somewhat on the lines of the historical that I have directed before. My collaborating partners were also keen that I direct it. Eventually, even I felt that maybe it’s best if I helm this film. So, it all happened organically.”
She added, “It does not make me nervous. It’s tougher when you have to carry forward someone else’s vision and find your own vision somewhere in it. In this case, I have worked on this film from scratch, and it’s gratifying and simple once you have the clarity of thought. I want to keep my focus on the film as a filmmaker, entirely. For me, it’s not a controversial subject. I see it as a story of love, faith and unity, and above everything, it’s a story of divinity.”
