Rajneeti was a movie which made its mark in the Indian cinema with its highly glorified shots and some of the outstanding performances of the large star cast. The movie did mark a change in the industry and also was oriented mostly on performances rather than star value. The talent of Prakash Jha in handling the whole crew to the limit was most appreciated.
He is now planning a sequel to the movie and considering the popular trends of women-centric roles, the movie will be having a female doing the lead and it will be none other than Katrina Kaif.
In the first part, it was a game of politics in which most of the characters gets killed and the only survivors from the family are Katrina Kaif and Ranbir Kapoor and Jha plans to start the movie hence forth. But will Ranbir be seen in its sequel? ""And though Ranbir's character didn't die at the end of Raajneeti, he won't be a part of Rajneeti 2. Again, I will be doing a spin on the Mahabharat, though this time, it will be completely different," says Jha.
The rumor has it that Ranbir backed out of the project as he did not want to play a side kick to Katrina in the movie but we never know!
For the original, Katrina Kaif not only brushed up her Hindi but also tried to get rid of her heavily anglicized accent. Kat did manage to pull off lengthy Hindi dialogues and gave her best performance in the film. Prakash Jha was very happy with the actress’ effort, and wished to work with her again.
The filmmaker was quoted saying: "It is very challenging to take the Raajneeti story forward. Most of the main characters are dead. Two-thirds of the characters will be completely new. Katrina (Kaif) will have a central role."
So that is the latest for Katrina after her jam with the three Khans its no stopping for the Queen of Bollywood!
