Today marks the 190th birth anniversary of the fearless freedom fighter, Rani Laxmi Bai. Actor Kangana Ranaut, who will be seen playing her on the silver screen soon, is utilizing the day to pay respect to the warrior queen. 

She says, “When Akhand Bharat was agreed upon, she really believed in new age India and fought for it. I think the best way to give her tribute is to value what we have today and to make Bharat a glorious country and world power. She was a true patriot who wanted her country to be a glorious one. I think to pursue her dream would be the best way to give her a tribute.”

Speaking on occasion, Shariq Patel, CEO, Zee Studios said, “Today, we remember India’s bravest and fiercest warrior, Rani Lakshmi Bai and her extraordinary life with the sincerest gratitude. It’s an honour to be able to salute her through our upcoming film, Manikarnika-The Queen of Jhansi”.
