Kangana Ranaut hinted that her future lies in film direction at the launch of the first trailer for Manikarnika. Kangana stepped into original director Radha Krishna Jagarlamudi’s shoes after he departed the project due to what has been in turn blamed on scheduling conflicts and creative differences.
Manikarnika is currently in post-production, with the VFX studios in a race against time to meet the film’s Republic Day release date, which Kangana said she insisted on. “It was my decision to come on Republic Day. I have driven everybody nuts for it. The VFX studio is currently a battleground,” she said at the launch.
