Honestly though. Who actually cares WHO DIRECTED this film? Why are they still fighting about this? Krish should have taken his opinions to the producer. Can Kangana actually hijack a sets and get more money to continue the shooting? It doesnt make sense.Hope they paid everyone on the sets. I heard they haven't yet settled.

I have been wondering if I was in Krish situation, would I be pissed? I don't know. I think as long as my fees were paid, I couldn't care less. If I wasn't paid, I would definitely make noise. Both cases did happen to me, but the not paying part pissed me off the most.

If you watch Krissh interview, he explains- he worked and made a wholesome movie that got changed, broken and twisted by Kangana and this producer Jain, giving interview here (that's all in the Hungama videos of Krissh).
Kangana in Rajeev Masaand interview says she directed 70% and then 'fixed' the rest of 30%.So she claims she did it all in those 20 days reshoots.

Then the issues is- the movie is not that lauded and unanimously loved like these producer claims (it barely took 57 cr in one weeek acc to BOI- on 120 cr budget) and it's criticised of being CHOPPY..clearly scenes don;t match (many inspired heavily from other historicals like BM,Bahubali, Padmavat)..
Many actors from movie came forward and agreed Krissh was shafted, their roles cut, and his project stolen- as Kangana wanted directing credits and focus on her chatracter only, no one else..even making Sonu Sood leave for cutting him so much.
So Krissh and the actors whose roles were cut say movie is bad (or not that good) because got changed and added ridiculous things
. Kanagana says she 'fixed' everything (implying Krissh stuff wasn't good) and filmed everything herslef.
Krissh says he did 400 days filming and finished it, not left..he was in preproduction when all the changes were decided without him.. and how can she reshoot everything, in a period movie, in 20 days of reshoot?
So basically there's implications Kangana shafted everyone for personal gains and making sure only her role being great one...even deleting others that had good roles written in-thus making the movie a bit of a mess..

********Uff..long write up..hope I surmised it all for you😛

If my friend robs a bank and then gives me 10 million dollars and I know it's stolen money but take it anyway, am I guilt free because I'm not the one who took it from the bank? It doesn't matter whether Kamal Jain is the one who "took " the credit from Krish, Kangana knows it isn't rightfully hers but claims it anyway. She didn't have to. She could have gone to Rajeev Masand and said, "Kamal gave me the first credit, but Krish did all the preproduction, supervised the sets, made the film, his editor edited it. We wanted some changes he didn't agree with so we parted ways and reworked it. Etc. " Instead she claimed the lion's share (and how is that even possible when so much is done by a director before filming even starts) and ON TOP of that theft told lies to help "explain " her theft which hurt others, Krish abandoned the film (uh, no), Krish deviated from the script (double no, not only untrue but she is the one who deviated from narration - per writer and Mishtii and Swati), Sonu won't work under a female director (uh no), etc. On and on and on.

And till now I thought Cricket is a team's game and the win and loose belongs to the whole team...

yes Dhoni will be remembered for his six... just like Kangna will and should be remembered for her portrayal of Manikarnika ...but the major credit of a win goes to the captain same way major credit of the movie should go to the director...esp the director who does major work...

sheesh I feel like a broken record saying the same thing in all manikarnika controversy threads 😆


Since people are talking about Dhoni.

Just like Credit for M.S.Dhoni film goes to Dhoni and not SSR. Same way, Credit for watever little Manikarnika earned goes to Rani Lakshmibhai, not Kangana.

If people were really interested to watch Kangana, her last 6 films would not have been washouts within 3 days. So many dont even know when her flops released n tanked 😆 This film would have made twice had Deepika or Priyanka played the lead.

Dude did you really watch the movie? It's only Kangana's performance as Rani laxmibai... She is just too good! And when it comes to acting Kangana is definitely a better actor then the then the ones you mentioned. Even in Simran kangana's acting was very good but movie flopped bcoz of the story.

Then, he should have let Kangana direct from scratch.The project moved only bcoz Krish was the director. He cannot simply allow an actor to throw the director out and put her name above the director for some patchwork.


Krish was used and discarded (why a South director was used-and why other known directors in Bollywood turned her down-they knew the source & implications) It was a set up from get go, the writer and Kamal are both in on it with kakana, by now others are in the merry-go-round and have to push for the film too, BUT the "writer" took advantage when kakana approached him, even after he found out it was HMehta's idea his research and part of his series, he still went ahead with the project, Kamal has no record of success as a movie maker per say and now his challenge to Krish to take the issue to court proves what I know: They are being backed politically & financially hence no fear about being charged with intellectual property theft. Prasoon Joshi and others will make sure of it. Hence ...political comments, endorsements, special screening for the president ..et al..Green light for the corruption to continue NONE of these people have any credibility, sadly not even Krish who must now have his conscience yelling at him for what was done to Mehta...and so on.

Even if this flick had been a blockbuster at the BO, it is still entangled in a quagmire of ugliness, kakana can claim this as a clean hit or claim she is the director, her claims are infinite but everyone knows the truth. The day she writes an original from scratch, produces it with her own money (not money some man is fronting) & directs it alone (not with two hired directors who's credit she steals) then I will be the first to applaud her.
