Kangana Ranaut and Amitabh Bachchan |
Kangana Ranaut or the Queen of Bollywood turns 30 today. So a warm and prosperous happy birthday to her. Over the years Kangana has achieved what many outsiders are still striving to achieve in the industry. Without having a godfather or any filmy connections, the actress has managed to make a mark in the industry. From being a meek girl from Himachal to becoming a fiery motor mouth that she is today, Kangana has come a long way in bollywood. And with the career choices she has made in the last few years, she has proved that she is here to stay. Her Bollywood journey is commendable and it wouldn’t be wrong to say that Kangana has achieved all the fame and success on her own merit.
The actress has been preparing hard for the Rani Lakshmibai biopic and looks like she will start shooting for it on her birthday itself. Kangana celebrates her 30th birthday on March 23 and instead of having a party, she has decided to keep herself busy with work. She will slip into the warrior queen’s fierce avatar and face the camera. As per sources close to the star, Kangana will shoot for the first poster of Manikarnika this Thursday, post which she will start shooting for the movie in the coming few months.
Kangana’s biggest achievement so far is that not only high-ranking directors like Bhardwaj think of her as a muse and customise characters for her, but also that she has brought respectability to the Hindi film heroine who suffered the most in the 90s. There was a time when Madhubala, Nutan, Meena Kumari and Madhuri Dixit powered films on their own, without being a prop for the male star. Kangana has proved that she is a hero who doesn’t need a Khan by her side to race to the Rs 100 crore box-office. But the trouble is, she isn’t an outsider anymore. She is fully co-opted into Bollywood. That’s why when she accuses the bigwigs of the movie business, one finger points back at her. Instead, it would be refreshing to see how she takes her popularity to the next level. It would be equally refreshing to see her move from dominating gossip columns and scandalous sections of newspapers to some place more meaningful. And what that place might be, only Kangana Ranaut can define.
