Not ‘Thalaivii’ star Kangana Ranaut, Jayalalithaa wanted THIS actress to star in her biopic

Kangana Ranaut has proven her mettle with flawless performances in all of her flicks. The excellent actress is well-known for her diverse film choices and difficult character shifts. Since her first glance as former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J. Jayalalithaa was released, the 34-year-old actress has been on cloud nine. Kangana Ranaut has received a lot of accolades for her portrayal in ‘Thalaivii,' and we think she deserves it because of her dramatic metamorphosis.

To everyone's amazement, late J Jayalalithaa wanted that Aishwarya Rai Bachchan portrays her role.

In a recent Tweet, veteran actress Simi Garewal spoke of the late Former Chief Minister's desires, saying that while she doesn't agree with Kangana's radical remarks, she admires her acting ability.

Garewal recently attended a special screening of Kangana's film and said that if Jayalalithaa had preferred Aishwarya Rai Bachchan to perform her character, the veteran actress would have agreed of Kangana's portrayal to prevent any controversy.

She wrote, “Altho I do not support #KanganaRanaut's radical comments..I do support her acting talent. In #Thailavii she gives it her heart & soul! Jaya-ji wanted Aishwarya to play her..my hunch is JJ wud hv approved of Kangana's portrayal. As for @thearvindswamy he is MGR reincarnate!!”
