Kangana Ranaut was all set to star in Rani Lakshmi Bai’s biopic which was going to be directed by Ketan Mehta. However, the film has hit a roadblock.

Reportedly, the film might never release, thanks to its high budget. The directors are finding it difficult to get a big studio on board to back the film. So, as there are no financers for the movie, it is impossible for the makers to start the shoot of the film.

Kangana was very keen to star in this film. The actress was all set to start the shooting of the Ketan Mehta directorial, after doing Hansal Mehta’s ‘Simran’.

Apparently, the makers of the film had also approached Hollywood actor Hugh Grant to play the role of General Hugh Rose. However, casting a Hollywood actor needs a bombastic amount.
