Kangana Ranaut is an MP from Mandi Constituency but before being a politician she was an actress and a filmmaker. She was the highest-paid actress in Bollywood at her peak. She is currently ready to release her acted and directed movie, She said that the movie “Emergency” is not merely a chronological retelling of events, but a deeper exploration of power and its consequences. “Her life was such a Shakespearean tragedy,” she says. “It’s not for us to judge or evaluate. It is what it is. When people see the film they will realize that it is such an honest take on the Emergency, what led to it, and what eventually came of it.”

Along with the movie we can't change the fact that she is a politician too. She said about two lives she is experiencing. "I am a person who goes with passion. Even in the film industry, I am an actor, writer, director and producer. Here in my political career, if I have to engage myself with the people here, I will go ahead with it. There is no compulsion. However, I won’t deny that the work in the film industry is comparatively easier than in politics. The latter takes a lot of effort. This is a harsh life, just like doctors, where only troubled people come to see you. When you go to watch a film, you are very relaxed. But, politics is not like that.”

Kangna also opened up about that it isn't te the first time she was offered a ticket to fight an election she said , “This is not the first time I was approached to join politics. I have received several other offers in the past. After my debut Gangster, I was offered a ticket. My great-grandfather was an MLA for at least three terms. So when you belong to such a family, and taste some success, the local leaders approach you. It is very common. In fact, my father had also received an offer. My sister was offered to join politics after she survived an acid attack. So for us, it is not a big deal for us to get political offers…If I wasn’t interested in this, I didn’t really have to go through so much trouble.”
