Kangana Ranaut's Rangoon Is A Biopic On 'Fearless Nadia'?
Director Vishal Bharadwaj confirmed that Kangana Ranaut's Rangoon is not a biopic on Fearless Nadia and it's only a love triangle set in the World War II era.
The trailer of Rangoon was out recently and people were blown by the plot of the film and the kissing scenes between Shahid Kapoor and Kangana Ranaut added to its USP. At first it was assumed that the film is a biopic on Fearless Nadia but director Vishal Bharadwaj has confirmed that it's only a love triangle and has no bearing with Fearless Nadia in any way. He said,
"Rangoon
is
a
love
triangle
set
in
the
era
of
the
Second
World
War.
We
have
tried
to
create
the
ethos
of
the
era
but
it's
a
work
of
fiction.
It
certainly
doesn't
follow
the
life
of
any
of
the
various
actresses
of
that
era
be
it
that
of
Fearless
Nadia,
Miss
Zebunissa,
Miss
Padma
or
Ramola.
Rangoon
is
a
period
drama
that
has
a
love
triangle
in
its
centre,
its
not
at
all
a
biopic."
Earlier, it was reported that Vishal Bharadwaj was keen on making a film on the life of Fearless Nadia and has chosen Rangoon to showcase the life of the stunt queen. It was also reported that the director had approached German actress Franka Potente to play the role. However, none of these rumours are true.
Rangoon is set in 1944 when World War 2 raged across the world and the film stars Saif Ali Khan, Shahid Kapoor and Kangana Ranaut in the lead roles. The film is all set to hit the theatres on February 24, 2017.
