Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub, who played the role of 'Sadashivrao Bhau' in Kangana Ranaut's 'Manikarnika: The Queen of Jhansi', said, "There was no arm-twisting or domination from her [Kangana's] end...Things were under control." "Kangana had clearly told me what my role would be, so I knew exactly what to expect," added Zeeshan, who was cast in film after Sonu Sood's exit.
