Kangana shines in upbeat “Simran” teaser

Bollywood director Hansal Mehta started Monday morning by giving a sneak peek into the world of Simran, the titular protagonist of his upcoming film. Kangana Ranaut plays the role of what appears to be a goofy and fun-loving girl. The one-minute teaser shows the myriad ways in which Simran keeps herself entertained and in the process makes others laugh. The teaser doesn't have any dialogues and it just introduces he audience to the protagonist.

Simran works at a hotel and has jovial friends with whom she dances like no one's watching and has fun along the way.

The film is reportedly the story of a young woman whose ambition to excel leads to her the world of crime. However, no hint of the film's sombre plot was revealed in the teaser, which Hansal Mehta shared a day after the motion poster.

Kangana started filming “Simran” last year, majorly shot in USA. The film, which is slated for release on September 15, also stars Sohum Shah, Rupinder Nagra, Esha Tewari and Aneesha Joshi.

Meanwhile, Kangana is gearing up for filming “Manikarnika: Rani of Jhansi”, a biopic on Rani Laxmibai. Last week, Kangana launched the film's poster in Varanasi. “Manikarnika: Rani of Jhansi” will be directed by Krish, who helmed films like “Kanchi” and “Gabbar is Back”. The screenplay of “Manikarnika” is by KV Vijayendra Prasad, the writer of SS Rajamouli's “Baahubali”.

Kangana was last seen in “Rangoon” in February, which was a box office debacle. The film also starred Shahid Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan.
