Director Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari opens up on her equation with Kangana Ranaut

Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari’s third directorial, Panga, starring Kangana Ranaut is all set to go on floors in Bhopal from Nov 11. Ashwiny has fleshed out the story from a one-line idea that came from the production studio, Fox Star. Panga is a story about kabaddi, but it’s also about family values, relationships and challenging oneself. “A story that needs to be told and I’m telling it at the right time. That it’s also linked to a sport makes it more challenging,” says the director.

When one quizzed Ashwiny on how she managed to convince Kangana to be a part of Panga, she says, “She instantly called me back and asked why I was introducing myself. I met her on April 14, the South Indian New Year, and soon after the narration, she was on board, saying I was her first woman director.”
In the recent past, there were reports that Ashwiny had included a non-interference clause in Kangana’s contract. However, the same had been denied by both Ashwiny and Kangana. Reiterates the same, she said, “I like to make my own judgements on work, interactions and equations. No one has the right to pass snap judgements on my personal relationships. My equations have always been cordial and I trust Kangana to bring this character alive and she trusts me.
