Dhaakad

The female-led action thriller term for Kangana Ranaut's upcoming film is exciting enough. The actor will be playing the lead role of Agent Agni and as the poster shows her with a gun and all-black look, in the background a car is overturned and the tires ablaze. It will be interesting to see how her character pans out in the film and whether it will be different from the basic thriller trope that Bollywood heroes hold on to. Though the film was announced to release in October 2021, the team has rescheduled it to some time in 2022.
