Congress accuses Kangana of not helping people of Himachal during calamity

Kangana Ranaut, who made her Bollywood debut with Gangster in 2006, is celebrating her 33rd birthday on Monday. She was awarded the Filmfare Award for Best Female debut. Since then, there’s no looking back. The actress unabashedly carries the tag of savagely fierce ‘Queen’ of the B Town, be it onscreen or off-camera. Kangana, being an outsider in the industry to one of the highest-paid actors in Bollywood, has come a very long way.
She gained more fame and popularity after she played the role of a naive woman in the comedy-drama Queen in the year 2014. She showed her amazing acting skills in movies like Tanu Weds Manu Returns, Manikarnika: The Queen of Jhansi, Judgementall Hai Kya, Panga and many more.
Kangana was called the Queen of Bollywood. Being the recipient of several awards, including three National Film Awards and four Filmfare Awards, Kangana has featured six times in Forbes India’s Celebrity 100 list. In 2020, the Government of India honoured her with the Padma Shri.
