Actress Kangana Ranaut is super excited about her upcoming long awaited action flick 'Dhaakad' which is just a week away from its release. The film will feature Kangana in a never seen before avatar and these days, she is busy with promotions of the same. During one such promotional chat with ETimes, Kangana was asked what kind of superhero would she like to play if given the chance.
In response, Kangana went on to talk about popular Marvel heroes and drew parallels between them and characters from Mahabharat. She stated, I would definitely adopt the Indian approach. I feel the West borrows from our mythology a lot. When I look at their superheroes like Iron Man, I feel his armour can be related to Karan's armour from Mahabharata, Thor wielding the hammer can be compared to Hanumanji and his gada (mace).
Kangana further added, I felt that The Avengers was also inspired by the Mahabharata. Their visual perspective is different, but the origins of these superhero stories are hugely inspired by our Vedas. They acknowledge this fact, too. Likewise, I would also want to do something original and why be limited to a via inspiration from the West.
Directed by Razneesh Ghai, 'Dhaakad' is set to release theatrically on 20th of May.
