Kangana Ranaut is slated to work in the upcoming biopic of 'Rani Laxmibai'. Talking about it, Kangana stated, "Of course, it was only when I was in a higher class and the poem was a part of our syllabus, that I began to understand the true meaning of the words and the woman they described." The director Ketan Mehta stated about the film, "It will be an international co-production with an international cast and crew. The reason for casting Kangana is that she has courage, fire in her belly and a desire to excel."



The actress is mastering the art of horse-riding and sword fighting. She said, "We have workshops to rehearse lines before the shoot.I also want to do workshops to learn hand-to-hand combats, how to ride in a sari, with a baby tied to my back, fighting with two swords and holding the reins in my mouth.Nothing should look fake or forced which is why I haven't set a time limit for when the film rolls. I want the script to come alive as beautifully and fiercely on screen."

The Queen actress said she won't sign another film until she completes the biopic, "A film like this gets made only once, no one is going to make it again. Since it's come to us, we have to do complete justice to it. I can't hope to go beyond this script, this film could well be the climax of my acting career so I'm going to give it the time it deserves."

Talking about Rani Lakshmibai, Kangana said, "On the battlefield, the Rani was unstoppable, as brave as Tatya Tope and Nana Saheb, mardani but not a mard. I've seen some of her pictures clicked by an English photographer and she was delicate and beautiful....More than anger there was melancholy on her face. She was a woman at the wrong place at the right time who ended up becoming a reluctant hero and rewriting history."
