"My accent is nowhere close to being right. Tamil particularly is very difficult like Sanskrit. I had done the film now but I don't think he has Okayed the accent till now," said Kangana. The Queen actress further added, "While I was on roll, he was still auditioning and told me that I have found a crystal clear accent that I was looking for in Hyderabad. So, obviously, he has rejected me long ago."

When asked the four-time national award winner how comfortable as an actor she would be if her dialogues would get dubbed in pure Tamil, Kangana said that as an actor it would not be a desirable experience. The Manikarnika star further revealed that when Ranvijay sir gave her the script he said "your voice is a very important part of your personality, and your voice is half of your performace. So you have to learn to speak Tamil." She added that she took it as a challenge, but he rejected her.

Directed by AL Vijay, Thalaivi also stars Arvind Swami, Prakash Raj, and Jisshu Sengupta. It is set to release on April 23. Apart from Thalaivi, Kangana has interesting projects in her kitty. She will be seen in Dhaakad and Tejas.
