Kangana spilled the beans on her directorial debut project, Teju. However, she will start work on the film only after she is done shooting for Manikarnika which she says is “30 percent over.”

About Teju, Kangana says that she will be working with kids and how she finds working with children difficult. She says, “That film (Teju) is under the process. I will start it only after Manikarnika. It will be a nice journey, I am looking forward to it. It is a children’s film, and I have a lot of ideas and excitement for it. But it will be a difficult project to pull off, and I am looking forward to it.”

When asked why she thought Teju was the best project to start her journey as a film director. She said, “I have many ideas, and something which materialised is something like this, it is a family-children-drama because I want to cater to any audience. It will be a light-hearted film, I can’t call it comedy, but most definitely a nice film. This is what I wanted to do.”

Kangana had a word on how it is to work with kids, and how she finds it difficult to work with them. She said, “Kids are very hard to handle! I like children, but to work with kids..oh…oh god…their sleeping time, and you know… But in my film there are kids.”
