"Kangana
has proved out to be the best choice for the film. I don`t think any other
actress in the industry would have done this role because it`s a non-glamorous
and ugly looking character. But Kangana has taken up the project. With her
films like `Tanu weds Manu` and `Queen`, Kangana has carved a niche in the
male-dominated industry," Kabir said.Mumbai,The 27-year-old
`Queen` star will be seen playing a politician with a quirky dressing sense.
The
Gwalior-born director said he took up this female-oriented subject as his debut
film because he wanted to revive the times of Guru Dutt and Bimal Roy."There
was a time when Guru Dutt and Bimal Roy used to take risk and took up subjects
like these but after few years these subjects lost its sheen amidst
male-oriented scripts. But, the new generation filmmakers have revived the
trend and are giving importance to the female characters," Kabir said.Produced
by Tigmanshu Dhulia, `Revolver Rani` is all set to hit theatres on April 25.
Although set in the backdrop of the notorious Chambal area, the director said
that his film is not rural and rustic."If
somebody is calling my film rural then I don`t mind because I am not the kind
of filmmaker who draws his inspiration from the humdrum of a city life. I feel
modern India is still rural from inside."I
am not interested to bring the character of those people on big screen who
spend their maximum time on google but they still don`t know who is the
President of India," he said.
Kabir
started his career in films as an assistant director to Kundan Shah and Aziz
Mirza. He worked with them for eight years and even wrote the screenplay of
many films."My
parents are doctors. I did my schooling from Airforce school and joined
theatres without completing my Engineering degree. After leaving theatre, I
joined Kundan Shah, Saeed Mirza and Aziz Mirza at the age of 21," he said.
