Kangana Ranaut also added that this time they both would take on a Panga on the same day. Kangana Panga would be at the theatres, and he would be battling it out against the New Zealand team on their home ground. She then claimed that this would be fun. 

Panga is directed by the acclaimed director Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari, who previously worked on Bareilly Ki Barfi. The movie also features Neena Gupta, Richa Chadha and Jassie Gill in prominent roles. Panga revolves around a former kabaddi player, played by Kangana Ranaut, who plans to return to the sport after a long hiatus. The movie will showcase the challenges that Kangana's character will face while trying to balance her love for the sport and her dedication to her husband and son.
