Kangana Ranaut Reflects on Career Struggles After Fashion SuccessPreviousNext

Kangana Ranaut, actor and BJP MP from Mandi, reflected on her 20-year film career, noting that despite the success of Fashion (2008), she struggled to find meaningful roles and worked in commercial films below her potential. Advised to hire a top manager, she took on projects like Rascals and Dhamaal but later gained recognition portraying ordinary women in films such as Queen and Tanu Weds Manu. She will next appear in Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata, releasing June 12.
