 Talking about the film, Kangana has earlier told media, “This movie is sure to instill a feeling of pride among the people. There is no love story angle in the film,” Manikarnika was marred in controversy for “tampering with historical facts” and “indecent portrayal” of Rani Laxmibai. Clearing his stance, producer of the film, Kamal Jain said, “As responsible filmmakers, we have taken utmost care while portraying Rani Laxmibai’s character and have consulted historians and scholars. Rani Laxmibai was a freedom fighter and one of the most respected leaders our country has seen. She is a symbol of valour and the film’s story depicts the same.”
Also starring Ankita Lokhande, Jisshu Sengupta, Atul Kulkarni, Sonu Sood and Suresh Oberoi, the period drama was earlier scheduled for November 29, 2018 release but was postponed due to some unfinished portion of the movie. However, the release date of Hrithik starrer biopic on mathematician Anand Kumar was announced early in this year on January 25.

Emma Thompson says she was always paid less than her male colleagues. The 59-year-old actor-writer said women are still treated as “second-class citizens”. She also advocated to publish salaries to reveal the gender pay gap. “I was always paid less than my male counterparts. Publishing figures is the first step. “It’s a forensic way of looking at how women are second-class citizens, and I appreciate that because it’s not emotional.

Bobby Deol was the ‘it boy’ of the 90s but will his comeback still hold that charm?

With his curly hair, bobbling head and round sunglasses, we still think of “ Duniya Haseeno Ka Mela ” when we think of Bobby Deol. After a string of popular films like Gupt and Soldier among others, Bobby made quite a name for himself in the 90s. Bobby was never known for his acting chops.
