Kangana Ranaut Daily
@KanganaDaily


Vishnu Induri announced that #Thalaivi / #Jaya filming will be starting from 15th October and they are planning to release the biopic in May 2020. The story shows the childhood days of Jayalalitha to the time where she becomes the Chief Minister.

looking forward to this!! ⭐️

Excerpts from a SpotBoyE IV

Talking about her experience of learning the dance form, Kangana said, "Thank you so much for reminding me that I am not a great dancer (Laughs). Bharatnatyam is difficult! the entire dance happens in a squat position. I feel it is very challenging for me but like I said it isn't more difficult than sword fight and riding horses and getting injured and beating 10 people and flying over the shoulders. After Manikarnika, I find everything easy"

She also revealed as to the schedule of the film shoot and how she is prepping to look the part. Ranaut added, "The film will go on floor in October and we will shoot till the end of January. I never mix two films unless it is a situation and then go into another. Dhaakad training and body type needed is different. even Jaya is different. The film is based on her younger days till she becomes a chief minister for the first time. She was also a voluptuous woman with a round face. We are trying to get prosthetics,"

Does this mean that the actress will be putting on weight for the first time for a role? Well, Kangana cleared the air and said, "Jayalalithaa had a dancers body and we are planning to achieve that body. In her youthful days, she had a very tiny waist. We will try and achieve that through pads and prosthetics. Some technicians are coming from the US and we are going through some kind of trials in coming weeks and then we will make the final call but I think this is the first character where I will be going through a huge transformation. I think Datto had just teeth and hair but it wasn't that drastic where I had to resemble an individual"

Busting rumors of postponement/on hold, planted by movie mafia, the producers confirm that the filming begins after Diwali (late Oct)

The team will head to LA for look test. Expecting a first look in the coming month or so.

Rangoli Chandel @Rangoli_A

Our team is travelling to Los Angeles on 19th of September for the look test, the final transformation will be something that will amaze you all, a legendary woman playing another legendary woman, can’t wait for you all to see the first look #Thalaivi #Jayalalitha

Vishnu Induri @vishinduri

It is very disheartening to see baseless rumours being spread without verifying. The pre-production of #Thalaivi is in full swing and the team is in Mysore for the recce and as planned earlier the shoot will start post Diwali.

#ThalaiviUpdate: Kangana has four looks spanning different ages in the film and we have roped in Hollywood Make up artist Jason Collins for Kangana's makeover. #Thalaivi #KanganaRanaut

Movie sounds interesting. Kangana is a good actress and will likely deliver..just hope she doesn't start any silly controversies and keeps things more mature during promotions etc.

Off to LA with the Thailavi team for final look test & prep with Prosthetics expert Jason Collins in LA.
