We’re All Stuck In A Rut, Panga Is About Taking Up The Challenge To Break It, Says Ashwini Iyer Tiwari

After Bareilly ki Barfi, Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari is now attempting what she describes as a  "slice of life sports drama", revolving around a 30-something protagonist who's a professional Kabaddi player. Panga, translates as 'to mess with', and the director insists the word will take on a new meaning after the film releases. "We all are stuck in a rut; life is about getting a job, getting married and having kids. We have forgotten there is a life beyond all this. Panga is about taking up a challenge, we have humanized the term," Ashwiny explains.

Expressing that the film talks about the role of a family in making a person's dream come true, she says, "while being a mother and daughter, focusing on personal goals becomes difficult. At such times, my family comes to my rescue."

Recently, the makers released the posters of Kangana Ranaut starrer Panga. While she starred alone in the first poster, she has been accompanied by co-star Jassie Gill in the new poster. Gill who plays her husband, Prashant, in the film can be seen leaning against the shoulder whole sharing a hearty laugh under the open skies. They two also have a son who seems just as happy as his parents.

The film also stars Richa Chadda, Jassie Gill and Neena Gupta in pivotal roles and is slated to release on January 24, 2020.
