Revolver Rani: flavours of a pulp fiction novel

The stars of Revolver Rani speak about both their characters and the plot of the movie.

MUMBAI: Actor Kangana Ranaut says her next movie Revolver Rani has the flavour of a pulp fiction novel by Hindi writer Ved Prakash Sharma. Talking about the movie, Kangana said: “This is actually a character of a neurotic, and the woman who we are going to see, and the film that we are going to see is very exciting, just like Ved Prakash Sharma’s novels that you find on railway stations. That’s the kind of treatment the film is carrying.”

“It’s very exciting. It’s total pulp. The woman is negative, brutal and very exciting,” added the star of latest hit Queen. Revolver Rani is releasing April 25 and its promotions have not started yet. Kangana says it is a conscious decision to go low on promotions.

“We have consciously decided that a film like Revolver Rani which is being made on small scale, doesn’t need a promotion of eight weeks. I think it’s been a conscious decision to promote the film in two to three weeks only,” said Kangana. The comedy drama, directed and written by Sai Kabir, also stars Piyush Mishra and Vir Das.

Das, known for his unique class of comedy on and off the big screen, has stepped out of his comfort zone to play a dark character in Revolver Rani.

“Das has done a completely different role this time. He is playing the role of Kangana’s toyboy, who does some desperate things to woo her for his ulterior motive,” said a source from the team.

“He has played a very different character, and we are sure that people would be surprised to see him in such a role as he always does comedy,” the source added.
