The film, which was earlier directed by South superstar director Krish, left the film midway due to unavoidable circumstances. Later, Kangana stepped into Krish's shoes and took the baton forward. The actress shares the direction credit with Krish, and has given three years of her life for this sole movie.
Actor Sonu Sood, who shot major chunks of this film, also left midway. Manikarnika: The Queen of Jhansi, which is slated for release on January 25, also features Ankita Lokhande, Danny Denzongpa, Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub and Jisshu Sengupta in pivotal roles.
