Kangana Ranaut To Turn Producer With Movie Titled 'Aparajitha Ayodhya'

Kangana Ranaut is on the fiercest women in Bollywood and no one can deny it. She is a ‘Queen’ of controversy and doesn't believe in letting bygones be bygones. After co-directing Manikarnika: The Queen Of Jhansi, the actress will now produce a film. Yes, you read it right. Kangana Ranaut is all set to make her foray into production with a film titled Aparajitha Ayodhya, which revolves around the Ayodhya case.

According to a report of Mumbai Mirror, Kangana is already in advanced stages of discussions with a top studio for the film which will explore the Ayodhya case. Talking to the tabloid, Kangana said, “The Ram temple has been a burning topic for hundreds of years. As a child born in the ’80s, I have grown up hearing the name Ayodhya in a negative light because the piece of land on which was born a king, who was the epitome of sacrifices, became the subject of a property dispute.”

The case has changed the face of Indian politics and the verdict has ended the centuries-old dispute while embodying the secular spirit of India,” she added. The actor further said, “What makes Aparajitha Ayodhya different is that it is the journey of the protagonist from a non-believer to a believer. And since, in a way, it reflects my personal journey, I decided it would be the apt subject for my first production.”

Kangana further stated that the film Aparajitha Ayodhya will pay tribute to the unwavering faith of devotees and how the country continued to remain a nation of believers. She said, “I’ve seen bhakts refusing to step out of the rain, arguing how can they be warm and dry when Ram Lalla is wet and cold.”

“Despite all efforts to wipe out our spirit of unity and secularism, we remain a nation of believers, we remain undefeated. Hence the prefix ‘Aparajitha’, which means the unvanquished,” she concluded.

Interestingly, the announcement comes at least a week after Kangana’s sister Rangoli Chandel tweeted saying the actor is starting her own production house, Manikarnika Films, named after the legendary Queen of Jhansi.

The script of Kangana’s next project i.e. Aparajitha Ayodhya will be written by KV Vijayendra Prasad. However, it is not yet clear whether Kangana will act in the film.

It is worth mentioning here that on November 9, the Supreme Court paved the way for the construction of a Ram Temple at Ayodhya's disputed site, and asked the Centre to allot an alternative 5-acre plot to the Sunni Waqf Board for building a new mosque at a "prominent" place in the holy town in Uttar Pradesh.
