Kangana Ranaut has begun preparing for her ambitious project Thalaivi, a multi-lingual film based on late politician J Jayalalithaa. The Instagram team of the actress shared two photos of Kangana undergoing prosthetic measurements. And they are cringeworthy, to be honest.
Kangana's sister Rangoli Chandel also shared pictures on Twitter and wrote, "This is how measurements for prosthetics are taken, it's not easy to be an actor. Kangana so calm in something, which is so suffocating for us to even watch."
Hollywood-based prosthetics expert Jason Collins, who has worked in films Captain Marvel and Blade Runner 2049, is working on Kangana's look. The actress is also learning Bharatnatyam and Tamil for Thalaivi.
Directed by AL Vijay, and produced by Vishnu Vardhan Induri and Shaailesh R Singh, Thalaivi will be a treat for both Kangana fans and Jayalalithaa's admirers. The movie is scheduled to go on floors after Diwali in Mysuru.
For the unversed, the superstar-turned-politician J Jayalalithaa went on to become the chief minister of Tamil Nadu. She was affectionately called 'Amma'.
On the professional front, Kangana Ranaut was last seen in Judgementall Hai Kya directed by Prakash Kovelamudi. The movie, also starring Rajkummar Rao, got good reviews from critics.
