Kangana Ranaut, who has emerged as the Queen of women-centric movies, is now set to impress the audience with her modern-day free-spirited role in Katti Batti. Having unveiled the film’s trailer, the actress managed to keep the mystery alive about its narrative and her character.

 

The trailer of the movie, which also stars Imran Khan, was unveiled here on Sunday.

 

Talking about the film, Kangana said, “It is a love story, which might not end up like a love story! The way this film unfolds, it is non-linear, it is really hard to give you an idea of what’s it’s actually about, especially my character in the film.”

 

Katti Batti features Imran as a young architect, Madhav Kabra, and Kangana as the free-spirited Payal.

 

Dropping more hints about the film, Kangana said, “It’s not about pregnancy. I don’t play a double role, I don’t play a Punjabi girl, I don’t play an NRI, nor do I get bored in the film, so no such things. There is no genre to the movie. The beauty of the film is that it is very intriguing. Revealing too much right now will take away fun and we really don’t want to take that away.”

 

Directed by Nikhil Advani and produced by Siddharth Roy Kapur under UTV Motion Pictures, the film will hit theatres on September 18.

Kangana Ranaut Talks About Her Katti Batti With Co-Star Imran Khan

The following content was provided by ndtv.com under thier RSS syndication rules and the content wholly belongs to them.

 

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.”

“If I would have got affected, I would be full of irrational doubts. I do have a strong sense of what can be achieved and what cannot.”

 

However, she minced no words when she spoke about the change in people’s perception after her role in Queen.

 

“People felt I was talented. I was surprised because I thought everyone knew from before that I was talented. With films like Once Upon A Time in Mumbaai, Woh Lamhe, Life in a… Metro, Tanu Weds Manu and Queen, I kept proving myself,” she said.

 

“I thought there was no doubt about my acting abilities. So, the reaction after Queen was a revelation to me,” she added.

 

Kangana, who had earlier bagged a National Film Award for Best Supporting Actress for Fashion, said she wasn’t expecting the Best Actress National Award for Queen.

The following content was provided by ndtv.com under their RSS syndication rules and the content wholly belongs to them.

 

This Bollywood bottom line is a thing of beauty. The Aanand L Rai-directed Tanu Weds Manu Returns has collected the year’s first Rs 100 crores at the home box office, an incandescent spot in an otherwise gloomy 2015 which has been less about profit and more about loss.

 

Monday’s business took the film past the finish line. Trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted:

#TanuWedsManuReturns crosses Rs 100 cr in India. Emerges the HIGHEST GROSSER of 2015 BIGGEST HIT of 2015 [so far]. Note: Hindi films.

— taran adarsh (@taran_adarsh) June 2, 2015

 

In a moment of pure Bollywood-like serendipity, the 100 crore day coincided with Tanu Weds Manu Returns‘ lead actor R Madhavan’s 45th birthday.

 

Tanu Weds Manu Returns stars Kangana Ranaut as both the female leads – the eponymous Tanu and her lookalike Datto – apart from Madhavan, Jimmy Sheirgill, Deepak Dobriyal and Swara Bhaskar.

 

The film had already made over Rs 100 crores worldwide last week, as have Deepika Padukone’s Piku and Akshay Kumar’s Gabbar Is Back.

The following content was provided by ndtv.com under thies RSS syndication rules and the content wholly belongs to them.

 

There’s no “right” age to get married, says actress Kangana Ranaut, who is currently basking in the success of her latest hit Tanu Weds Manu Returns and is in no mood to “give away” her “position” in the film industry as of now.

 

“Marriage is hard work. I have worked hard for ten years and I don’t have time to build equations. I am in a place where I can secure my position and have a good future; I don’t want to give it away,” the National Award-winning actress said here.

 

“When love happens, it happens just like that. Just because you are 28 years old, it doesn’t mean you have to get married and have kids,” she said.

 

Kangana, for whom Tanu Weds Manu Returns has turned out to be a double bonanza after Queen, says she feels that a new journey has started for her.

 

“There is a time when you struggle to prove yourself worthy of what you rightfully deserve, and then comes a time when that struggle is over. Then there is struggle to explore, transcend your limit and go to the next level. I am going to stage two now,” she said.

 

Produced by Eros International and Colour Yellow Productions, and directed by Aanand L Rai, Tanu Weds Manu Returns is a sequel to 2011′s Tanu Weds Manu. The film also co-stars R Madhavan.
