Hope Rajjo turns out to be a game changer: Kangana Ranaut

Kolkata: Having proved her mettle in a comic role in the 2011 romantic-comedy Tanu Weds Manu, actress Kangana Ranaut on Monday said that she hopes her forthcoming film Rajjo, in which she plays a nautch (dance) girl, turns out to be a game changer. The actress broke free of her troubled girl image that she had in films like Gangster, Woh Lamhe and Fashion, through her impressive comic timing in director Anand L. Rai’s Tanu Weds Manu, which also gave her a chance to dance.

After ‘Fashion’, people did not give me comedy roles and Tanu Weds Manu was a game changer for me…and now Rajjo has given me another chance to dance and I hope it too becomes a game changer,” she said during the opening of Adrija Jewellery showroom here. Busy promoting her next release, Krrish 3, the actress said researching for her role as a nautch girl was a revelation. She was shocked to find that most of the women in the flesh business “really love doing what they do”. “Most don’t even mind being in flesh business. They really love doing what they do….it’s not that they want to escape or have a different life.. it was a shocking thing for me. “The ones who are really popular mujra girls ..it’s unlike how they are portrayed in Hindi films…they are trained and they are groomed in the art and craft of wooing men …so well spoken and well mannered and these are the few things that I realised while doing the research.” IANS
