As a devoted admirer, I can confidently say that Manisha Koirala‘s journey in Bollywood is nothing short of inspiring! Her resilience and grace, even after battling cancer and entering her golden years, is truly commendable. The news of Heeramandi 2 being the ‘project of a lifetime’ for her only reaffirms my admiration for this remarkable actress.

Legendary Bollywood actress Manisha Koirala captivated audiences once more in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Heeramandi, and with the news of a second season, fans couldn’t contain their excitement. Now, Manisha herself has shared an exciting development, referring to it as her ‘dream project’.

In her conversation with India Today, Manisha Koirala shared some insights about the upcoming film Heeramandi 2. She mentioned that the start date is uncertain since Sanjay is deeply engrossed in his current project, Love and War, at the moment. However, she expressed her enthusiasm for the Heeramandi 2 announcement, stating it’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that they’ll have a better understanding of only after Sanjay completes Love and War.

Looking back on her professional journey, she expressed that she now selectively takes on roles based on careful consideration. Overcoming significant personal hurdles such as battling cancer and reaching her fifties has led her to prioritize living life to the fullest.

The actress from Dil Se has expressed appreciation for being part of significant productions under talented directors, but made it clear that she’s no longer content with taking any role offered. She’s not keen on reprising old characters or playing secondary roles. Instead, her goal is to challenge herself and delve into fresh, demanding aspects of acting.

Manisha continues to nurture her ardor for remarkable roles, as she’s devoted to giving outstanding performances in projects that truly captivate her. She disclosed that she’s thriving in life, prioritizing her health, family, pets, and travels, and is satisfied with this stage until a genuine script presents itself.

On June 3rd, Netflix India and Sanjay Leela Bhansali made an exciting Instagram announcement, disclosing that Heeramandi will return for a second season. The post showcased a lively video of dancers dancing on Carter Road in Mumbai, adorned in stunning Anarkalis and ghungroos, reflecting the spirit of the series.
