Kangana’s dedication
Prosthetics are being used for the makeup of the actress and Kangana’s sister Rangoli Chandel has also revealed that Kangana has gained 15 kg weight for the role. Well, Kangana has always tried to give her best whether she played the role of a fickle minded girl in “Tanu Weds Manu”, a revolutionary in “Manikarnika: The Queen of Jhansi” or the character of a Kabaddi player who wants to make a comeback, which she played in her latest release “Panga”.
Directed by A. L. Vijay, “Thalaivi” is going to release on 26th June 2020. What do you think of this new poster of the film?
