In the years since their 2017 collaboration on 'Simran,' director Hansal Mehta has arrived at a candid reckoning: working with Kangana Ranaut was, by his own admission, a massive mistake. The film slipped quietly past audiences, and Mehta now suggests the fracture began not in the editing room but on set itself, where creative alignment never took hold. His reflection speaks to a tension as old as filmmaking — that talent, however genuine, cannot substitute for the rarer alchemy of shared artistic vision.
