Sohel and Razy are my friends, and we have been planning this project from quite some time. I am quite excited for this film and can't wait to start work on it," she added.
Meanwhile, before this, Kangana Ranaut declared that her 'most ambitious project' titled Thalaivi, based on the life of late actor-turned-politician J. Jayalalithaa has now 'wrapped up.' As the film came to an end, Kangana wrote a heart-wrenching note for her team and said that it was a 'lifetime privilege to work with the team. She also admitted that she had 'mixed emotions' as her time to say 'bye' to the film after falling in love with the character. The movie also stars Bhagyashree, Arvind Swamy, and Madhoo Shah in pivotal roles.
