Kangana Ranaut miffed with 'I Love NY' filmmakers

Even if she doesn't approve, Kangana Ranaut's now titled 'Queen of Bollywood'. After the stupendous success of 'Queen' and her latest rom-com 'Tanu Weds Manu Returns', movie pundits claim she's got the Midas touch, and can turn any movie into box-office gold.

So, it's only natural that filmmakers are going to cash in on her success.

While many are queuing up to sign her for new projects, there are others who are reviving their 'canned film' to allegedly cash in on her new celeb status.

'I love NY', starring Sunny Deol and Kangana, had reportedly been shelved a few years ago.

The film has suddenly found a facelift and is now scheduled to release on July 10.

The filmmakers have even cut a new trailer, this time putting the spotlight on Kangana Ranaut.

The first trailer, which was uploaded in February, 2013, pitches the story differently.

According to Indian media, the actress is miffed with the producers for misusing her fame. 

"Kangana is very particular about the kind of films she chooses now, and the direction in which her career should head. That’s why she was a bit surprised when she got to know that her film with Sunny is set for a release in July," read the report in Hindustan Times.

"She called up Bhushan (Kumar; the producer of the film) and had a long chat with him."

The newspaper quotes Bhushan as saying he's got no role to play in the release of the film. "The release isn't in my hands, since I had sold the rights of the film to some distributors back then itself. Now, it's up to their (distributors) discretion, if and when they want to release the film."

The romantic comedy is directed by Radhika Rao and Vinay Sapru.
