Actress Kangana Ranuat is ready to take the next step in Bollywood and go behind the camera to direct a feature film.
Earlier, the 26-year-old National award winner had directed a short film written in collaboration with an Australian writer and shot in the US. The film revolves around a four-year-old boy and a dog.
"I have directed a short film in the US... But I want to direct a full-fledged feature film as well. But for that I need some time to prepare... May be a year. Right now I am working on multiple projects. This is not the right time so when I find the time I will do it. But direction is definitely on cards for sure," Kangana told PTI.
Ask her what she would like to capture on celluloid as a director, the actress said, "I am interested in making a biography but I can't reveal on whom."
Usually, we see actresses turning producers but production is something that is not on her mind at all.
"No... Not production, it is not my cup of tea," she added.
Kangana will be seen next in superhero science fiction film 'Krrish 3'.
"It (character) is alien cum superwoman cum Tomb Raider cum cat-woman sort of a role named Kaaya. I have an unconventional look. I am sexy but wicked. A lot of effort was put into achieving the desired look for the film. It was quite challenging," she said.
The film directed by Rakesh Roshan will continue the story of Rohit Mehra and his superhero son Krrish. This is the third film of the Krrish film series. It stars Hrithik Roshan, Priyanak Chopra, Vivek Oberoi and Kangana in the lead.
She has also bagged a slew of interesting projects like 'Ungli', 'Queen', 'Revolver Rani' and 'Rajjo'.
'Queen' is a comedy-drama film directed by Vikas Bahl featuring Kangana and Rajkumar Yadav. 'Revolver Rani' is directed by Sai Kabir and produced by Tigmanshu Dhulia and Rahul Mittra. The film is said to be an action with popular stand-up comedian turned actor Vir Das playing the lead role.
In 'Rajjo' she plays a nautch girl which is directed by newcomer Vishwas Patil. And then she has Karan Johar's home production multi starrer film 'Ungli'.
