Kangana Ranaut is one of the actors who has built herself without any godfather in Bollywood. She has gained a special position because of her acting skills. The actress has always been vocal about her struggles and it has never been a bed of roses for the actress.
In fact, she had faced a lot of struggles in her initial days of acting. In several interviews, she has spoken about how she had run away from home and come to Mumbai with just Rs 1500 in her pocket. From there to turning out to be the highest-paid actress of Bollywood.
In an interview with Pinkvilla, the actress revealed her financial battle which she faced during her initial days of acting, the actress said, “Initially when you start, you don’t get paid. You’re not a star kid who are given stylists and who tell them what to style with what. I remember after Gangster; I was going for these award functions where I was getting an award. I didn’t have clothes to wear. I didn’t even have any money to buy those clothes. So there was this designer friend of mine Rick Roy who used to sponsor my clothes. He was struggling himself but his parents were supporting him”.
The actress further spoke about how had it not been for Rick, she would have been absent from those functions completely. “He would make these gowns for me and I’d wonder where he’s getting the money from. But it was wonderful that somebody came to my help. Otherwise, how would I even go to these functions? I wouldn’t have made it to those award nights. I didn’t have clothes. Otherwise, I used to wear a few Mango tops and for me, those were the luxury brands. That was the best I could afford at that point. I didn’t have access to anything. From there, I came here so it’s amazing,” she shared.
