Kangana Ranaut on doing ensemble film

In a media conference, Kangana opened up on her experience of working in Chandramukhi 2. The actress emphasised on the film being a refreshing change for her as she mostly stars in movies where she gets the most screen time, unlike this one, as she only appears in the second half of the Raghava Lawrence starrer.

She said, “I am honoured to be a part of Chandramukhi 2, where Lawrence plays the double role. I didn't get to be his heroine but I am happy to be Chandramukhi for now. My role starts only in the post-interval and before that I will scare people with my ghungroos, voice and screams. I love to do these kinds of ensemble film especially when I only do title roles and protagonist films so this has been a refreshing experience for me."
