Kangana Ranaut will be seen playing the role of Rani Lakshmibai in ‘Manikarnika—The Queen of Jhansi’. The shooting of the film is going on in Hyderabad in Ramoji Film City, and recently the actress got injured while shooting for the same.

Entertainment portal Pinkvilla got the pictures of injured Kangana and the actress told them, “I am a bit embarrassed to be thrilled to have a battle scar on my face. Also, people from my team have been telling me that it’s like that Peshwa teeka that Manikarnika wore. It’s a bit dramatic but I am excited that my face was covered in blood and I got a genuine and authentic glimpse of the Queen’s life.”

Well, the picture of Kangana shows that she has got a deep cut. Reportedly, the actress has got 15 stiches.

Few weeks ago, ‘Manikarnika—The Queen of Jhansi’ was in the news because of Ketan Mehta. The filmmaker claimed that Kangana was supposed to the film with him, but then later cheated on him and went on to make the film with other makers. Mehta was going to take the legal action against the actress. However, there’s no development about the same.
