Kangana Ranaut likes to be creatively involved in the process of filmmaking. While not all filmmakers take very kindly to that thought, Hansal Mehta does. Mehta who recently shot Simran with Kangana, is happy about his product, that is a collaborative work between the director and his actors. “We live in a democratic county and I see it as a collaborative effort. Kangana is a thinking actor and she has collaborated with us very closely on Simran. The film has shaped up really well,” he said.
Kangana plays a 30-year-old Gujarati NRI divorcee in the film. There have been reports that the film is inspired by the life of an NRI nurse in the US named Sandeep Kaur, who was imprisoned last year for robbing banks to pay off her gambling debts.
Meanwhile, Hansal’s son Jai will debut in a short film titled Paani Path, with National Geographic’s Mission Blue, on water conservation.
