Evoking the image of an Indian Black Widow the fiery and enigmatic Agent Agni aka Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut is set to enthrall the audiences in her movie DhaakadShe recently visited the Capital along with coactors Arjun Rampal Divya Dutta producer Deepak Mukut and director Razneesh Ghai Kangana and the entire cast talked about their roles and the actress emphasised on the challenges in portraying her fierce and daring personalityShe spoke about how the movie will compete with Kartik Aaryans Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 at the box officeSpeaking about her look and how she prepared for her role Kangana shared I would like to thank our director for taking up this project and doing a movie with me while everyone suggested to him how you can do your first movie with Kangana I tried to give my bestShe added while pointing towards the director He was most apprehensive about my weight gain due to Thalaivii and always asked me You will lose this weight right you will lose and I used to respond Yes I will she laughs and adds Even I used to think whether I will be able to be in shape again for this role after looking at his faceRazneesh added what was on his mind when he took up this project and Agent Agnis character I wrote the stories for two other guys to portray physically strong woman characters and I wanted to physically push Kangana as she had done Thalaivii and so it was a gradual process to lose weight I wanted to inspire children and todays generation with this movieKangana shared I wanted to use fake guns for this movie as I got hurt while shooting for Manikarnika but my director was keen that I should use real weapons As far as my training is concerned since childhood I have been learning from my action master Surya Narayan ji from whom I am learning from the age of 16 or 17 but never got such a role except a few like Krish or Manikarnika Moreover for the movie a crew came from Hollywood and also from Korea for the training So its a team effort and no single person can be given the creditShe claimed This movie has the longest fight sequence in Hindi cinema approximately 14 minutesContinuing the conversation Arjun who will be seen as Rudraveer an international human and arms trafficker in the movie throws light on his characterHe defined his personality as stylish brutal lean evilsomeone without feelings I dont think anybody has presented me like this I am returning to the big screen after a long hiatus and I dont think I could have had a better opportunity and a better director to come onboard and do this wonderful filmDivya briefed about playing a grey shaded character Rohini in the movie Dhaakad is a really special movie for me This is especially true because sometimes one is able to receive a complete package This is a totally different sort of role Its a negative one I got the opportunity to participate in numerous crazy mean streaks which was really funThere were some amazing scenes that I think I will remember for the rest of my life Its something really beautiful Its so nice to be cast against your type and that was really wonderful I am so glad I have the most fantabulous costars with me I think I will look back and have a broad smile she addedTalking about the competition between Dhaakad and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 Kangana said We cannot always get a solo release It isnt like that these films are releasing on 5000 or 7000 screens They both can simultaneously come and do well at the same timeOn many Indian movies adapting from foreign films and Dhaakad having original content Kangana said Definitely this is an original ideaArjun Rampal added I would like to add something Razneesh and I were talking recently He received a call from the action directors They said that the action scenes looked so amazing that they wanted to enter the movie for the action awards that are held in HollywoodThe actress also shared her perspective about South films doing well and getting a good response from the audience in comparison to Bollywood filmsShe said I have been the biggest cheerleader for South Indian films If you see I was the first one to start the topic of our regional cinema should do well We all should do something by coming together to save our screens from Hollywood or international films because the Italian French and German and English film industries have singlehandedly destroyed everyone We must promote South Malayalam Kannada or Punjabi films We should be scared of the American film industryOn the question of women centric movies being made less in the industry Kangana said We should look at a film just as a film We shouldnt attach sexuality to itDivya also asserted I think we should cease demarcating womencentric and mencentric movies Once this happens normalcy will come by itselfArjun concluded We have come from an era when women had limited rights and there was no equality Ever since Ive arrived in the film industry Ive done at least one womenoriented movie per year I think that this is because my support system is primarily comprised of women which includes my mother my sister and now my daughtersDirected by Razneesh Ghai Dhaakad is presented by Soham Rockstar
