Kangana continued further and added, “When I started working at a young age, I didn’t achieve success until 8-10 years into my career. I didn’t enjoy my success. I turned down offers to endorse fairness products, boycotted item numbers, rejected working in big hero films and with big production houses,” Ranaut, known for films like “Queen”, “Tanu Weds Manu” franchise and this year’s “Thalaivi”, added.
The actor-producer, who is known for her provocative statements, said receiving “this honour will shut the mouths of many people” who often ask her why she concerns herself with matters of national importance.
“I made more enemies than money. When I became more aware of national matters, I raised my voice against any power that threatens the country…” she said, adding she had lost count of how many legal cases she is currently embroiled in.
