Kangna Ranaut: “I was the unwanted child”

Kangna Ranaut has always been one to speak the truth, no matter how controversial, despite her celebrity status.�� The actress recently revealed that in her growing-up years, she was the “unwanted child” at home.

Speaking to PTI, Ranaut said, “When I was born, my parents, my mother especially, couldn’t come to terms with that fact that they have had another baby girl.�� I know these stories in detail because every time a guest visited, or there was a gathering, they repeated this story in front of me that how I was the unwanted child… It’s very hard to live in an environment where you’re reminded, constantly told that your existence just happens to be here… that you are not meant to be here.”

Ranaut has two siblings: an elder sister, Rangoli, and a younger brother, Akshat. However, her parent’s also had a son named Hero before Rangoli’s birth, who unfortunately did not survive.

On the work front, Ranaut , who is often seen portraying roles of strong women onscreen, will next be seen in Vishal Bhardwaj’s ‘Rangoon’ alongside Shahid Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan.
