Later, she also participated in the Ganga aarti at the Dashashwamedh Ghat along with the team of her new film. Kangana revealed that she wanted her journey for Manikarnika to begin with the blessings of Lord Shiva, reported IANS. "After coming on board to this project I'm feeling like I've achieved something very big in this movie," Kangana told IANS.
Kangana was resplendent in a pale pink Sabyasachi sari and cut-stone jewellery at the poster launch event. More pictures from Kangana Ranaut's visit to Varanasi have been shared on social media.

The 30-year-old actress also shared an update on the progress report of Manikarnika, about which very little is known. "The prep is restricted to the material like photographs and letters. I saw a lot of things here. I will be going to Jhansi and other places for research," Kangana told IANS.

Kangana Ranaut was accompanied at the poster launch event by composer trio - Shankar Mahadevan, Ehsaan Noorani and Loy Mendonsa - who will work on the music of the film. The trio delivered a blockbuster performance along with Richa Singh at the event.
