Here Is Why We Are Seriously Excited To Watch Manikarnika: The Queen Of Jhansi This Weekend

For a while now, Manikarnika has been one of the most talked about and awaited films. The film directed by Krish Jagarlamudi with Kangana Ranaut playing one of the most magnanimous queens in the history of this country is going to be one of the earliest releases of 2019 on January 25th. The film is also the most expensive woman-centric film that Bollywood has ever come up with and has also been courting a lot of controversies of late.

After the teaser of the film, it became evident that film is going to be a saga of epic proportions, and the trailer simply gave us goosebumps upon its release. Rife with controversies and brimming with potential, here is what we are expecting from Manikarnika: The Queen Of Jhansi this weekend.

Historically Accurate

One of the most common issue we have with periodic films is the lack of attention to detail. Hrithik Roshan’s Mohenjodaro was heavily criticized for tampering with historical facts. Given Rani Laxmi Bai is a well-documented figure in history, we are hoping that historical accuracy is one thing that the film gets right.

Stellar Action

From the teaser to the trailer, if there is one thing that has got us really hooked to the film due to the stellar action sequences. Kangana’s sword fighting and the high octane war sequences have surely got us excited.

Kangana As A Director

Kangana is not only the lead of the film, but she has also been credited as the director of the film. Kangana surely has a lot riding on this film and it is only understandable that she has worked seriously hard to make the film work. Given how amazing an actress she anyway is, it would be incredibly interesting to watch her in this one.

Stunning Visuals

The film, which is an epic, has surely been shot as one. From elaborate sets, grand war sequences and heavy VFX, the film has every possibility of serving us some really impressive visuals.

Ankita Lokhande’s Big Bollywood Debut

Ankita Lokhande has been a super popular face on TV because of her superhit serial Pavitra Rishta which ran for more than 6 years. The actress is making her big Bollywood with this film, where she will be seen playing the role of Rani Laxmi Bai’s close aide Jhalkari Bai. We are really thrilled to watch our favorite Archana sizzle the big screen.
