MUMBAI: Kangana Ranaut is currently one of the reigning queens of the industry. However, that was not always the case. Asked if it was easy to find success, Kangana quipped, “I have struggled for the last 10 years.
” Talking of her initial days of struggle, the actress quoted in an report as saying that, “It was no fairy tale. I was nothing like I am today – I couldn’t speak a word of English. In England, people might be understanding of that, but in Mumbai if you don’t speak English, people would ask ‘How does she expect to work in Hindi films?’ Today I am who I am because my understanding of myself never changed.”
Having grown up in a small town, Kangana asserts that as a girl she was at odds with Indian culture. “Perhaps the only expectation is that you grow up as a presentable young woman and get a decent spouse. I was a pain, not the kind of child an Indian parent would like to have,” Kangana confessed.
