Kangana Ranaut is focusing on women-centric films and signing such kinds of films. Even in her upcoming films, Dhaakad, Thalaivi, Tejas, she is portraying strong female characters. Now, the actress has announced her next film, 'Manikarnika Returns: The legend of Didda'. The film is the second installment of her 2019 released film, Manikarnika: The Queen of Jhansi. Well, the actress is turning her successful film Manikarnika into a franchise. The second installment will be based on Kashmiri Queen Didda, who showed lionhearted courage against Mughal invader Mehmood Ghaznavi.

Kangana Ranaut took to Twitter and announced her collaboration with Manikarnika producer Kamal Jain. She tweeted, "हमारा भारतवर्ष साक्षी रहा है झाँसी की रानी जैसे कई वीरांगनाओं की कहानी का. ऐसी ही एक और अनकही वीरगाथा है कश्मीर की एक रानी की, जिसने महमूद गजनवी को एक नहीं, दो बार हराया. ले कर आ रहे हैं @KamalJain_TheKJ और मैं, #ManikarnikaReturns: The Legend of Didda." Check out her tweet here -



Didda, was the ruler of Kashmir from 980 CE to 1003 CE, first as a Regent for her son and various grandsons, and from 980 as sole ruler and monarch. Most knowledge relating to her is obtained from the Rajatarangini, a work written by Kalhana in the twelfth century.

She married the king of Kashmir, Ksemagupta, and united the kingdom of Lohara with that of her husband. Even prior to becoming Regent Didda had considerable influence in state affairs, and coins have been found which appear to show both her name and that of Ksemagupta.

On the professional front, she will be seen next in the war-drama film 'Tejas' helmed by Sarvesh Mewara, the film will follow the story of a daring and fierce fighter pilot, played by Kangana Ranaut. On the other side, she also has an action flick 'Dhaakad' in which she will portray the role of a spy and will be produced by Sohail Maklai productions and Asylum films, co-produced by Qyuki Digital Media. Apart from these films, she recently wrapped up the shoot of 'Thalaivi: The Revolutionary Leader'.

Well, Kangana Ranaut has the best lined-up films compared to any other Bollywood actress and with 'Manikarnika Returns: The legend of Didda', she is really going to break the box-office records.
