She is all that you want to be and has a firm mind of her own. Her hourglass figure hides her steely resolve. Her frail voice belies the determination she is driven with. Refusing to be let down by her past and fear of unknown future, Kangana Ranaut is living her life to the fullest taking one-day at a time. Lets take a glimpse of her inner sight in this frank and bold interview of the once small town girl. |

How has life been and how have you changed with stardom?
Life is cool, yaar. Whether it’s my work or my personal or professional life. I feel like your personal life is deeply related to the way you work. I don’t know how people talk about keeping their professional life and personal life apart. I feel much more focused now about what I want to do and where I am heading. Earlier, it was not like that.

You have gone though so much at such an early age. You have a career to look up to and are fending for yourself and your family.
You’re right. I’m 20 and girls my age don’t have the way of life I have. My friends are in hostel and they still take money from their parents and all that. But if you go to see, I have never been like a normal kid. My mindset, my friends, was never like the people of my age group. I never reacted the way my parents expected me to react to certain things. I was always very mature. I did have trouble in life because of my own self. So it is a mix of gain and loss, but I’m happy the way I am.

When you look back at your past, do you regret your decisions?
Regret? No. I don’t even know how it feels when you say you regret. I’m the kind of person, if I lose my phone right now, I will never think about where and how I lost it. I will always make the next move. I’m not the kind of person who will sit and crib about my past.
You’ve taken up yoga in a big way. Is that your first step toward spirituality?
In my case, I have not taken up spirituality; I don’t even know the exact meaning of spirituality. Yes, I am into yoga but it has nothing to do with supernatural powers or my being religious. It’s very scientific. I just want to concentrate better on work; I want to be a better actor, a better person. I don’t want people to feel great about me nor do I want to be some kind of Buddha. When it makes me feel good, why not.
Are you ambitious?
Yes. It is a very strange feeling. You do feel very ambitious sometimes. You want to possess Gucci clothes, buy Chanel make up; you want everything in the world for your sisters, your brothers, and your parents. You want to go with your boyfriend and get all the material things. But then maybe the next moment, I feel like giving up everything I have. I don’t know but I feel I live a life, which is a mixture of that. Sometimes I feel ambitious, sometimes I feel contented.
Are you really so steely and strong for your frail frame and young age?
I didn’t deliberately do anything to show people. I don’t think anybody’s face or appearance can give you the real idea of how he or she is. I have seen the most beautiful people who are really f…..d up and really bad human beings. But if I come across as a very soft or very strong person and if I look like that, then that is the way I am. If I looked very fragile and innocent, I used to be (smiles), but no more.
You have grown up in a small town. How have you adjusted to the fast life in Mumbai. Has the city changed you?
Ya, life here is fast but my motion is slow, I sleep at 8 o’clock and get up at 5 o’clock. My life is the same that it used to be when I’m not shooting. But when I’m shooting, the story is completely different.

Do you feel other actresses view you as competition now?
I don’t know. A lot of actresses who are in the industry from some time shouldn’t take me as a competitor but they should take me as a junior because everybody is like so senior to me. Also everyone is here from the last 10-15 years. Actresses come and go, so there’s no need to feel competitive.
You have always shown an impeccable dress sense. Were you always aware of fashion even growing up as a small town girl?
Well, there is a secret desire in me to become a designer, so I’m just working towards that. I want to be everything. I’m learning classical dance so I want to be a classical dancer, then a singer, then a fashion designer, then a painter, because we just have one life and then you know I am going to die.
You give an impression of being a recluse already. Do you enjoy your solitude?
I never give this impression that I am so different. In a way, all of us are different nobody is alike. In that manner, if you go to see, I am very much like any other girl but my priorities are different. But if someone gets to know me better, they will never say that there is anything abnormal about this girl or anything. In fact, I don’t like to be isolated but when you need time for yourself, when you need to speak to yourself or when you need to sort out things within you, then where do you go? You can’t do it in the midst of 10 people. I don’t think anything is wrong with that and I think everybody should do that.
So have you sorted out yourself?
Yes, but it gets entangled again and again. Then again, I try to sort myself out, and again I get entangled.
