After
the
first
teaser
of
'Dhaakad'
was
released,
many
compared
the
look
of
Kangana
Ranaut's
to
Angelina
Jolie's
Lara
Croft
from
Tomb
Raider,
which
was
released
in
2001.
Kangana,
in
a
recent
interview,
stated
that
'Dhaakad'
will
be
more
or
less
like
the
Hollywood
horror
franchise,
Resident
Evil.
In
an
interview
to
Mid-Day,
the
Queen
actor
said,
"Dhaakad
is
in
the
same
space
as
Resident
Evil.
The
movie
has
several
chase
sequences
and
sword
fights.
I
will
use
all
kinds
of
sophisticated
weapons,
including
some
of
the
latest
machine
guns.
I
believe
one
must
pick
up
new
skills
for
every
movie.
I
don't
like
to
rush
into
any
project
as
it
makes
me
anxious."
Director
Razneesh
Razy
Ghai
explained
how
she
will
be
trained
for
the
stunt
sequences
in
the
movie.
He
told
the
tabloid,
"Manikarnika
was
a
period
film
that
had
Kangana
training
with
swords.
But
since
Dhaakad
is
a
contemporary
movie,
the
style
of
action
is
different.
She
will
have
to
undergo
a
six-week
programme
-
besides
learning
hand-to-hand
combat
and
Krav
Maga
for
two
weeks
each,
she
will
dedicate
a
fortnight
to
learn
how
to
use
guns.
A
team
of
stunt
directors
from
Thailand
will
train
her."
It
is
being
said
that
the
film
will
be
shot
mostly
in
Thailand,
Budapest
and
Prague.
The
movie
is
scheduled
to
be
released
for
Diwali
2020.
Dhaakad
will
also
have
a
few
scenes
shot
in
the
northern
parts
of
India
and
the
crew
is
waiting
for
Kangana
to
finish
her
work
on
Ashwiny
Iyer
Tiwari's
Panga
in
order
to
finalise
the
dates.
In
Panga,
she
plays
the
role
of
a
Kabbadi
player.
Kangana
Ranaut
was
last
seen
in
Judgementall
Hai
Kya,
which
was
directed
by
Prakash
Kovelamudi.
If
reports
are
to
be
believed,
Kangana
is
currently
getting
trained
in
the
classical
dance
form,
Bharatanatyam,
for
her
role
in
Thalaivi.
Thalaivi
is
a
biopic
on
the
late
Tamil
Nadu
Chief
Minister
J
Jayalalithaa.
Shooting
for
the
film
will
start
by
October
end.
