After impressing audiences with her leadership qualities in Manikarnika: The Queen Of Jhansi, Kangana Ranaut is all set to take over the action avatar for Dhaakad.
Talking about it in a recent interview, the actress says that Dhaakad is in "the same space as Resident Evil."
The reason behind this comparison is because Dhaakad will have "several chase sequences and sword fights," she notes.
