Another clash of movies seems to be on the anvil. Kangana Ranaut-starrer ‘Manikarnika: The Queen of Jhansi’ will lock horns with Arjun Kapoor and Parineeti Chopra-starrer ‘Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar’. While there has been no official confirmation of the release date of ‘Manikarnika’, a trade expert has tweeted the release to be August 3.

But it isn’t only the released ate that keeps Manikarnika in news. After protests against ‘Padmaavat’, Kangana’s movie is also facing protests from a Brahmin group of Rajasthan. They claim that the movie is based on Jaishree Misra’s book ‘Rani’ and according to it, there is a love sequence between Rani Laxmibai and a British official, so the movie too would contain such a scene. However, the producer of the movie, Kamal Jain exclusively spoke to Bollywood Bubble that there’s no truth to what they claim.
