For someone who’s been in the news so much, Kangana Ranaut still has the power to surprise you—whether she’s defying death on the sets of her new film, looking for love in her own cautious way or building a dream villa in Manali.
In September, she started work on what she acknowledges as the most challenging film of her life, Manikarnika: The Queen Of Jhansi, in which she plays Rani Lakshmibai. It’s a historical figure Ranaut looked up to during her growing years. Determined to do justice to the role, the actor performed stunts that left her with 15 stitches on her forehead, a visible scar and a painful ligament injury. As work on the film wraps up and Ranaut approaches her 31st birthday on March 24, we catch her in an introspective mood.
