Filmmaker Vishal Bhardwaj, who will be working with Kangana Ranaut in
Rangoon, said that she is one of the finest actresses in Bollywood.
Rangoon features Saif Ali Khan and Shahid Kapoor apart from Kangana.
Mr Bhardwaj has worked with Saif in
Omkara and Shahid in
Kaminey and
Haider.
"Kangana is one of the finest actresses that we have in the industry today. I always want to work with fine actors. I want to work with people like Irrfan Khan and Kangana because they are such great actors," Mr Bhardwaj told PTI.
Mr Bhardwaj is confident that Saif and Shahid will be great in
Rangoon.
"They suit their roles and I like them a lot," he added.
He also said that he will start working on
Rangoon sometime around mid-November but the director denies that it is inspired by
Casablanca.(Also Read:

"It is a period film, set during the World War II in the 1940s. Like
Casablanca, it is a love triangle but it is in no way inspired or adapted from any film. It is an original work," said Mr Bhardwaj.
