In an EXCLUSIVE interaction with Pinkvilla, Manikarnika producer Kamal Jain spoke about how both Kangana and Krish will get directing credits in the trailer. Kamal shared, "After Krish had other commitments and we saw the film, we felt that it has to really go further. We can't go with an average film as it's a tribute to Rani Laxmibai. It has to be the best. We decided to push the envelope further and reshoot or shoot new portions.

"Talking about how Kangana took over, Kamal said, "Since Krish was not available, Kangana Ranaut was the most suitable one because she has been living the film, since forever. Creatively, she is inclined and has taken onus on herself. She has done everything with passion and interest. I was also there throughout and we collaborated the entire process. She did the entire direction. Every part of the filmmaking - be it costume, art, direction, camera angles, she's been very professional and proficient. We never felt this was her first movie as a director. To helm such a big scale of the film is not easy and she is acting also along with direction and writing. It was really good. As a producer, I believe that even if someone has worked on my film for just a day, I have to give credit to them. Kangana has shot more than 70 percent of the film. There is no way that we can't give credit to her. It will be absolutely unethical and unfair on my part as a producer. Even if she would have told me, 'No, don't give my name,' I would have given her credit."


Trailer is out tomorrow.

i'm taking that to mean she never refused to be credited as a director, right? so she was lying once again when her team released this article:

When the studio asked her if she would take credit for it, she turned down their offer saying that it was her responsibility to ensure the film turns out well," a source told the daily.

I'd love to hear Krish's side of the story and his take on the entire fiasco, i.e, straight from the horse's mouth.

I, at times wonder how she managed to piss off Anand L Rai, one of the gentlest men in the industry 😆!!
