She may not ascribe to titles but actress Kangana Ranaut certainly knows how to hold the court and hold forth like royalty. When asked at the trailer launch of Katti Batti who’s the real queen of Bollywood without skipping a beat Kangana replied, “Is Bollywood a country. That’s a lame question.”


 


On the subject of royalty, Kangana certainly channeled a King and I vibe a la Deborah Kerr, a dramatic choice for a rainy day. Kangana explained the outfit and said, “It’s a Sunday. You all were coming. I wanted to make it worth it for you all. I could have chosen to wear jeans and a t-shirt but this is just for you guys so you can get good pictures.”


 


Co-star Imran Khan looked rather dapper as well. Even if his career hasn’t shaped up as well as his sharp suits over the past two years.


 


Imran said, “I’m glad that I got this break. I needed to spend time with my family. My wife was pregnant, my daughter was born. These are things that happen once or twice in a lifetime, if you’re lucky. There’s no way I would give that up. I’m happy that I was there. That being said I’m also very happy that I’m back at work because I love to make movies.”


 


Considering the positive reviews that Katti Batti is receiving, it seems that like R Madhavan in Tanu Weds Manu Returns, Imran could be poised for his big comeback courtesy the ‘Queen‘.


 


Of which Kangana, defending Imran, said, “It’s a love story and both of us have equally important parts. May be Imran has more screen space but that doesn’t mean anyone’s character is weak.”


 


While Kangana can afford to be kind with co-stars, does talk of rivals ruffle her feathers? When asked about the status of her sometimes frosty sometimes friendly relationship with actress Deepika Padukone, she said with a serene smile, “It’s Katti Batti.”

Tanu Weds Manu Returns star Kangana Ranaut has stepped on the other side of the camera for her upcoming film Katti Batti. She has directed the first seven minutes of Nikhil Advani’s upcoming project, in which she will be sharing screen space with actor Imran Khan.


 


The Queen actress took cinematographer Tushar Kantiray’s blessings and offered him Re 1 to allow her to use the camera.


 


“It’s a seven-minute uncut sequence. I had to shoot it by holding the camera in my hands which was the demand of the script. It was nerve-racking, but actors can do anything for a director who shows trust and faith in their abilities. Nikhil (Advani) is one such director,” Kangana said in a statement.


 


Kal Ho Na Ho director Nikhil Advani is really impressed with the Tanu Weds Manu actress.


 


“One of my favourite scenes in the film is one in which Kangana’s character is shooting Imran (Khan) playfully with an iPad. I wanted the scene to be authentic and organic so Tushar (Kantiray) suggested that we should allow the actress to shoot it herself,” said Nikhil.


 


“The lighting was completed, the set was cleared out and Kangana has shot the scene like a pro, adding one more talent to her already overflowing basket,” added the D-Day director.
