Naysayers be damned. With her latest film ‘Manikarnika: The Queen of Jhansi’, which crossed Rs 40 crore in its opening week and is being praised for a power-packed performance, actress Kangana Ranaut is proving why the epithet 'Bollywood's queen' suits her.According to trade analyst Atul Mohan, ‘Manikarnika...’ registered the biggest ever opening weekend collection for a woman-led film in the history of Indian cinema.
Her acting and gravity defying stunts have been lauded. "I honestly think Kangana Ranaut was possessed by the spirit of Bruce Lee. Even the gravity defying stunts looked believable because of the searing intensity on her face," opined filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma.Is this the return of Kangana?"Return? She has always been around," industry expert Vinod Mirani told IANS.
"Well established stars, especially good actors don't fade out. A lot of stars like Akshay Kumar and Ajay Devgn have given a line-up of flops but they come back when a script is good."
She is outspoken like few in the industry are, and has faced her share of rows with industry bigwigs. But above all, Kangana, as Mirani said, is a "great actor".Actress Raveena Tandon, for one, is impressed."Directing this magnificent extravaganza seems like a challenge which you have successfully and effortlessly fulfilled," actress Raveena Tandon wrote on Instagram.
Filmmaker Madhur Bhandarkar, who gave Kangana a career-defining role in ‘Fashion’, said the actress is a "one man army in life and also a one woman show in the film 'Manikarnika'".
"Your flawless performance is captivating, intense, controlled, with sheer brilliance. You deserve all the accolades and awards for 'Manikarnika', hands down," Bhandarkar tweeted.
