Kangana taking over Manikarnika has left the production of the film in quite a disarray. Some actors like Sonu Sood has walked out, leading to a huge furore. Sonu and Kangana had a verbal spat, where the latter accused the former of unprofessionalism, while he retorted accusing her of incompetence. The movie is all set to release on January 26, 2019, clashing with Hrithik Roshan's Super 30. However, with the reshoots happening, we have to see if this box office clash takes place.
