New Delhi: Maverick filmmaker Vishal Bhardwaj's 'Rangoon' saw a line of first-class performance not only from the lead actors—Kangana Ranaut, Shahid Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan but also from the supporting cast.
'Rangoon' is set in the backdrop of World War II and is essentially about a love triangle between Kangana, who plays Miss Julia, Shahid (Nawab Malik) and Saif (Rusi Billimoria). The film hit the screens on February 24, 2017, coinciding with the biggest festival Mahashivratri.
At a media interaction, IANS quoted Kangana revealing about some of her best scenes being chopped off. She said, “Those scenes were my top-notch performances and I was shattered when I came to know about the edit. I thought without those scenes my performance would be regarded as satisfactory and it won't be appreciated that much. Despite that, people loved it. I am very happy.”
"Some of my favourite scenes, which were important for the graph of my work were edited. I prepare my character's graph in a linear pattern so when I saw the film Vishal Ji explained why the editing was legitimate," the "Queen" actor said.
On being asked about compliments from the industry, she said: "More than I expected. Many from industry have complimented and messaged me which is a very sweet gesture."
