Kangana Ranaut's loss is rumored to be Lakshmi Manchu's gain, as the curly haired actress has refused to play the second fiddle in the Hrithik Roshan superhero flick Krrish sequel.

It is already known that Priyanka Chopra is going to be the female lead in the film opposite the Roshan hunk but there is still a place for the role of another female lead and the Roshan clan wanted Kangana to step in.

Already Ranaut is pretty miffed with the Roshans as her role in Kites got unnoticed and all the footage and the glory was taken by Barbara Mori for various reasons and it tasted really sour for the actresses. So now the buzz is that the Roshans are looking south for their second female lead and it might be Lakshmi.

The south Indian actress has already carving her name and created all the right vibes with her character in her the Teglugu debut flick Anaganaga ODheeru. In AOD too Lakshmi is not the female lead but portrays a negative character and the film is scheduled for Jan 14 release.

Kangana is even more not interested in playing the second lead in the film because in Fashion too Piggy Chops took the accolades. So if the buzz is right director Rakesh Roshan is in talks with Lakshmi Manchu for Krrish 2 and the young actress might be all set to climb the ladders to make it big in Bollywood.
