Kangana Ranaut and Rajkummar Rao's second collaboration Mental Hai Kya's release date has been pushed further. The movie which was earlier slated to hit theaters on 22 February 2019 and then 29th March, will now release in May, fresh reports say. Mental Hai Kya is directed by Prakash Kovelamudi and produced by Ekta Kapoor and Shobha Kapoor. The film deals with mental health and hallucinations, and depicts the relationship of an ex-couple.
The delay in the film’s release is reportedly due to Kangana Ranaut as the actress has requested the makers to give her a breather between Manikarnika: The Queen of Jhansi and Mental Hai Kya, the latter being a black comedy, says a Mid-day report.
The report further revealed that a March release for the film would also mean heavy promotions and given that the period drama took a toll on her, she wishes to space her next.
However, a final release date for the film isn’t out yet but reports has it that Mental Hai Kya will be hitting the cinemas this May.
Kangana will be playing a voiceover artist in the film and Rao will be a playing the role of an entrepreneur. Meanwhile, Rajkummar Rao will be seen playing an entrepreneur in the movie.
Earlier in a statement, producer Ekta Kapoor said, ''Mental Hai Kya celebrates the beauty in imperfections and in being different and shouts out, Sanity is overrated! I'm thrilled to work with Kangana and Raj on this one." Directed by Prakash Kovelamudi, the movie also features Amyra Dastur and Satish Kaushik in pivotal roles.
