In a forthcoming movie to be directed by Pradeep Sarkar, Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut will play the iconic Bengali theatre performer Binodini Dasi, well known as Notee Binodini.
An important figure in the development of Indian theatre culture was Notee Binodini. Under the guidance of Girish Chandra Ghosh, she performed over 80 parts over the course of a 12-year career, including those of Sita, Draupadi, Radha, Ayesha, Kaikeyi, Motibibi, and Kapalkundala. She was one of the first theatre performers from South Asia to pen her own autobiography.
“I’m a really huge fan of Pradeep Sarkar ji and extremely pleased for this opportunity,” Kangana Ranaut stated when approached. Additionally, this will be my first time working with Prakash Kapadia, and I couldn’t be more thrilled to be a part of this amazing journey with some of this country’s greatest artists.
Prakash Kapadia, who has written for films like “Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior,” “Padmaavat,” “Devdas,” and “Black,” is yet to decide on a title for this mega-budget movie.
Following the completion of her directorial debut, “Emergency,” in which she portrays the late former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, Kangana is anticipated to begin filming for the Pradeep Sarkar movie early the following year. In her upcoming movie “Tejas,” Kangana will also play an Air Force pilot.
