A self-proclaimed interviewer’s delight, the girl is a seasoned warrior when it comes to the game of life—and the very reason the phrase ‘femme fatale’ came into being...
The unmistakable scent of ‘diva’ permeates a clear, white-walled studio as Kangana Ranaut sweeps in for her first change. Her fishtailed legs, encased in an elaborate, mesh dress manage to make even a shuffle look graceful, and, as the light reflects off her translucent skin, it’s impossible not to make a comparison to a China doll. She seems almost breakable as a tiny frame moulds to different poses, her short, golden hair cementing the doll visual firmly. But, sitting across from her in her home a few hours later, as she sips a cup of green tea in a pair of track pants, it becomes clear from the notes of steely confidence in her voice that she’s anything but breakable. Admitting to have had a veritable struggle up the ladder of success, weakness is something Kangana has shed over the years, coming into a second skin of startling self-assurance. So much so, in fact, that she simply cannot fathom it as a human quality anymore. “I have nothing to say to women who don’t believe in themselves—women who think they’re any less than men, or are trapped in bad marriages. If you don’t have the fight in you, there’s nothing I can say or do to make you believe in yourself. Some women are weak, some women are strong. It’s as simple as that. If somebody doesn’t have that fight in them, there’s no hope for them.” She shrugs simply, and says it’s a stance that comes from having no common ground with them. “I wouldn’t know how to talk to such women, or work with them. It’s almost like they’re aliens to me.”
