Kill Bill: Volume 1 released in 2003 and became a stupendous hit. It introduces Uma as the deadliest woman assassin in the world who swears to take revenge on her previous gang mates and their leader Bill after they try to kill her and her unborn child. The film made on a budget of $30 million raked in over $180 million at the box office. The sequel Kill Bill: Volume 2 was actually made as a single release but was divided into two given its runtime of four hours was also successful and received commercial and critical acclaim. Besides Uma, the film also stars Lucy Liu, Michael Madsen, Daryl Hannah, and Vivica A. Fox and David Carradine.

Kill Bill was made as an homage to “grindhouse” cinema including martial arts films, samurai cinema, blaxploitation films, and spaghetti westerns. It also features anime sections by Production IG. The film since its release has achieved a cult status and has earned a place in the popular culture as well.

It will be interesting to see who fits the bill for this action fest. Priyanka, Katrina or Deepika....what' your pick?
