Kangana in Dhamaal 2

Ever since the beginning of her career, Kangna Ranaut has excelled in roles where her character is a tad edgy. Also, there is a certain psychotic/suicidal element to majority of her characters. Whether it is Simran of GANGSTER, Sana Azim of WOH LAMHE, Neha of LIFE IN A METRO, Shonali of FASHION, Nandita of RAAZ - THE MYSTERY CONTINUES or Gina Grover of KITES - each of these characters hasn't quite been a regular girl next door with everything hunky-dory about her. No wonder, one has waited to see Kangna in a film where she could afford to live life normally, be happy, enjoy a normal relationship and let her hair loose.

Audience (and perhaps Kangna's) wait has finally come to an end with the actor being signed for DOUBLE DHAMAAL, sequel to the original DHAMAAL, which was successful at the box office. Icing on the cake lies in the fact that though the first of this Indra Kumar franchise was an all boys affair (Sanjay Dutt, Riteish Deshmukh, Arshad Warsi, Javed Jaffrey, Ashish Chaudhary), the sequel is all set to be a far colorful affair with female protagonists being an integral part of the film as well.

Confirms Kangna, "Yes, I have signed the film. It seems good fun to be working in a laughter entertainment like DHAMAAL. Being a part of a comic outing like this should be quite interesting." When asked about her leading man in the film, Kanga informs, "I am paired opposite Riteish in DOUBLE DHAMAAL. We begin shooting this September." DOUBLE DHAMAAL would be for the first time that Kangna would be working with Riteish Deshmukh, something that should make for an altogether fresh new pairing.

Other than Kangna, there is another leading lady in the film as well. As per reports, Vidya Balan is also a part of DOUBLE sequel and would be paired opposite Sanjay Dutt. However, an official confirmation is yet to come in.
