— Kangana Ranaut (@KanganaTeam) July 20, 2024Sonu and Kangana were supposed to work together in the latter’s directorial Manikarnika but the Simmba actor quit the historical drama due to that Rohit Shetty film.
Kangana Ranaut , the leading lady of the film, claimed that he left the movie as he “refused to work under a woman director”.
Sonu, who played a grey character in Rohit Shetty’s Simmba , grew a beard as part of his looks and was busy shooting the film. But the actor was supposed to have been clean shaven like a warrior in Manikarnika: The Queen of Jhansi, backed by Zee Studios and producer Kamal Jain.
It was reported that the makers of Manikarnika: The Queen of Jhansi would tweak the script of the historical biopic because of his new looks for the film Simmba. But the plan didn’t work.
“Inconveniencing the team of his current film, to accommodate the demands of another, are against his professional principles. Sonu has taken the higher road ahead and wishes the team of Manikarnika… all the best,” Sonu’s spokesperson said in a statement back in 2018.
Kangana claimed that Sonu “didn’t even give us tentative dates to match combinations with other actors”.
“He refused to meet me… He refused to work under a woman director. Even though the team suggested that they have full faith in me, it seems, Sonu had neither dates nor faith,” Kangana said.
