‘Manikarnika: The Queen of Jhansi’ starring Kangana Ranaut to release on August 3

Recently Kangana Ranaut’s film ‘Manikarnika: The Queen of Jhansi’ was in the news as it was facing issues from Rajasthan. The release was also set for April 27th, but now as per reports, the release date has been shifted to August 3. The film will be a historical drama one. The release date has been pushed by four months due to extensive work on VFX.


The source said, “Everything is going on track. Shooting is currently on in Alsisar, Rajasthan. They will complete it today and tomorrow onwards; filming will start in Bikaner where it will continue until the end of this month. With this, the movie’s shoot will also be wrapped up. There is ample time for post-production. They could have released the film on April 27, but they decided to come in August because it is the month of our Independence. Rani Lakshmibai’s battle against the Britishers was the first fight for freedom, so looking at the emotion; the call was taken to release it in August.”


The film stars Kangana Ranaut in the lead role and Atul Kulkarni as Tatya Tope, and Sonu Sood as Sadashiv.
