[hide]Early life and background
Ranaut was born on 23 March 1987 at Bhambla (now Surajpur), a small town in the Mandi district of Himachal Pradesh, into a Rajput family.[1][2][3] Her mother, Asha Ranaut, is a school teacher and her father, Amardeep Ranaut, is a businessman.[4] She has an elder sister, Rangoli, who as of 2014 works as her manager and a younger brother, Akshat.[5][6] Her great-grandfather, Sarju Singh Ranaut, was a Member of the Legislative Assembly and her grandfather was an officer for the Indian Administrative Service.[7] She grew up in a joint family at their ancestral haveli (mansion) in Bhambla, and described her childhood as "simple and happy".[6][8]According to Ranaut, she was "stubborn and rebellious" while growing up: "If my father would gift my brother a plastic gun and get a doll for me, I would not accept that. I questioned the discrimination."[9] She did not subscribe to the stereotypes that were expected of her and experimented with fashion from a young age, often pairing up accessories and clothes that would seem "bizarre" to her neighbours.[8][9] Ranaut was educated at the DAV School in Chandigarh, where she pursued science as her core subject, remarking that she was "very studious" and "always paranoid about [...] results".[10][11] She initially intended to become a doctor on the insistence of her parents.[12] However, a failed unit test in chemistry during her twelfth grade led Ranaut to reconsider her career prospects and despite preparing for the All India Pre Medical Test, she did not turn up for the exam.[12] Determined to find her "space and freedom", she relocated to Delhi at the age of sixteen.[5][13] Her decision not to pursue medicine led to constant feuding with her parents and her father refused to sponsor a pursuit he considered to be aimless.[9]In Delhi, Ranaut was unsure which career to choose; the Elite Modelling Agency were impressed by her looks and suggested that she model for them.[4][13] She took on a few modelling assignments, but generally disliked the career as she found "no scope for creativity".[4][13] Ranaut decided to shift focus towards acting and joined the Asmita Theatre Group, where she trained under the theatre director Arvind Gaur.[14] She participated in Gaur's theatre workshop at the India Habitat Centre, acting in several of his plays, including the Girish Karnad-scripted Taledanda.[15] During a screening when one of the male actors went missing, Ranaut played his part along with her original role of a woman.[16] A positive reaction from the audience prompted her to relocate to Mumbai to pursue a career in film and she enrolled herself for a four-month acting course in Asha Chandra's drama school.[17]Ranaut struggled with her meager earnings during this period, eating only "bread and aachar (pickle)". Refusing her father's financial assistance led to a rift in their relationship which she later regretted.[7][9] Her relatives were unhappy with her decision to enter the film-making industry,[5] and they did not correspond with her for several years.[2][6][9] She reconciled with them after the release of Life in a... Metro in 2007.[6]Career
Film debut and critical acclaim
In 2004, the producers Ramesh Sharma and Pahlaj Nilani announced that Ranaut would make her film debut with the Deepak Shivdasani-directed I Love You Boss.[3][19] The following year, an agent took her to the office of the producer Mahesh Bhatt, where she interacted with the director Anurag Basu and auditioned for the lead role in the romantic thriller Gangster.[13][20] Bhatt felt that she was too young for the role and signed Chitrangada Singhinstead. However, Singh was later unavailable to do the film and Ranaut was contracted as a replacement for Gangster,[20] opting out of I Love You Boss.[19] She was cast in the central role of Simran, an alcoholic woman caught in a romantic triangle between a notorious gangster (played by Shiney Ahuja) and a sympathetic friend (played by Emraan Hashmi). Ranaut was only seventeen while filming and said that she "had difficulty first in understanding and then unwinding from the character", describing her craft as "raw and immature".[21] Released in 2006, Gangster emerged as a critical and commercial success and her performance was praised.[22][23] Raja Sen of Rediff.comsaid that "Kangana is a remarkable find, the actress coming across with great conviction. Hers is the pivotal character and an extremely difficult role to essay, but she manages it well [...] Kangana's nuances [of an alcoholic character] are disconcertingly realistic."[24] She won the Filmfare Award for Best Female Debut, along with various other debut awards.[25]Ranaut's next role was in the Mohit Suri-directed drama Woh Lamhe (2006), a semi-biographical film based on the schizophrenic actress Parveen Babi and her relationship with the director Mahesh Bhatt.[26] She said that portraying Babi had left her emotionally drained, as she had begun to "feel her desolation and loneliness."[27] Film critic Subhash K. Jha wrote that Ranaut "is the first female performer of Bollywood since Smita and Shabana who isn't scared to strip her soul naked for the camera", adding that she is a "hugely expressive actress with a phemomenal ability to convey torment, hurt and incredulity through the eyes".[28] Despite positive reviews, the film underperformed at the box office.[29][30]The following year, Ranaut portrayed an aspiring musician in Suneel Darshan's musical thriller Shakalaka Boom Boom, alongside Bobby Deol, Upen Patel and Celina Jaitley.[31] The film's production was marred by a dispute between Ranaut and Darshan; she objected to her voice being dubbed by another artist, but he insisted that he needed a particular "twang and accent" for her character.[32] India Today described the film as an "amateur mess" and the film proved to be a box office flop.[23][33] She next reunited with Anurag Basu for the ensemble drama Life in a... Metro, playing the supporting role of Neha, a shrewd socialite engaged in an affair with her married boss (played by Kay Kay Menon). Despite a poor initial run at the box office, the film emerged as a profitable venture.[34] Khalid Mohamed of Hindustan Times was critical of the film, noting its lack of originality and realism.[35] In a more positive review, Raja Sen wrote that Ranaut "is refreshing [...] and manages to herd her emotions well, playing a complex role but hardly ever overreaching", but criticised her delivery of English lines.[36] For her role, Ranaut was awarded the Stardust Award for Breakthrough Performance – Female.[25]Ranaut next portrayed a village girl in Dhaam Dhoom (2008), a Tamil romantic thriller, opposite Jayam Ravi. Production on the film was temporarily halted when the director, Jeeva, died of cardiac arrest and the film was completed by the crew members.[37] A review carried by Post wrote that Ranaut had "little scope" in a role that did not suit her.[38] India Today described her next film, the Madhur Bhandarkar-directed drama Fashion (2008), as a "landmark" in her career.[22] Set against the backdrop of the Indian fashion industry, the film co-starred Priyanka Chopra and Mugdha Godse and featured Ranaut as Shonali Gujral, a substance abusing supermodel struggling to cope with her foundering career. Because the media speculated that her role was based on the former model Geetanjali Nagpal (which both Ranaut and Bhandarkar denied),[39] the Delhi Commission for Women (DCW) ordered a stay on the film's release, approving it only after a script narration.[a][40] With a worldwide revenue of 600 million Indian rupees (), approximately US$10 million, Fashion emerged as a commercial success,[41] and was listed by Subhash K. Jha as one of the best films of the decade with women protagonists.[42] Ranaut's performance drew unanimous critical acclaim.[22] Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungamapraised her confident portrayal of the character and believed that she was the real star of the film,[43] and Nikhat Kazmi of The Times of India added that she "does an exquisite metamorphosis from a wispy, high-strung, nervous child-woman to a stunning ramp diva."[44] Her portrayal earned Ranaut several awards, including the National Film Award and Filmfare Award for Best Supporting Actress.[25]Career fluctuations
The supernatural horror film Raaz: The Mystery Continues from director Mohit Suri was Ranaut's first film release of 2009, in which she played a successful model who is possessed by a ghost.[45] The film co-starred Emraan Hashmi and Adhyayan Suman and proved to be a financial success.[23] Shubhra Gupta of The Indian Express noted that Ranaut was becoming stereotyped in roles that required her to be "hysterical", adding that she needed a "radical change of image".[46] Also that year, she played the leading ladyin the drama Vaada Raha and the Telugu action film Ek Niranjan, neither of which were particularly notable.[22]In a brief role in Anurag Basu's romantic thriller Kites (2010), Ranaut portrayed the fiancée of Hrithik Roshan's character. She said that she felt "cheated" after watching the film, as her role proved to be much smaller than what she had initially signed on for.[47] She then portrayed fictional film actress Rehana in the Milan Luthria-directed gangster film Once Upon a Time in Mumbaai. Also starring Ajay Devgn, Emraan Hashmi and Prachi Desai, the film chronicles the rise and subsequent fall of an underworld don (played by Devgn) in the 1970s. Ranaut said that her character was "a mix" of the actress Madhubala and the gangster Haji Mastan's wife and that to prepare she observed the work of the actresses Zeenat Aman and Parveen Babi.[48] The film was one of the most successful releases of the year and garnered positive reviews from critics.[49][50] Sudish Kamath of The Hindu labelled her a "delight" and Mid Day 's Sarita Tanwar praised her for being "totally convincing" in the role.[51][52] After playing a television reporter in the thriller Knock Out, Ranaut actively looked for a comedy and found the role in Anees Bazmee's No Problem, but both films failed to propel her career forward.[22][53]According to Bollywood Hungama, after establishing a reputation for portraying neurotic characters, Ranaut was seeking projects that would be "less emotionally exhausting" for her.[54] Her first release of 2011 was Anand L. Rai'sTanu Weds Manu, a romantic comedy opposite R. Madhavan, which Ranaut considers a "game changer" for her.[55][56] Rai stated that he cast her for the role to illustrate that the actress was capable of playing other roles and that her character in the film was unlike any of those that she had played previously.[57] Critical reaction to the film was mixed, though Ranaut's performance was praised.[23][25][58] Rajeev Masand wrote, "Kangana Ranaut is a pleasant surprise in a cheery, upbeat part that we haven't seen her take on before. She rises to the challenge, only hampered occasionally by her mangled dialogue delivery."[59][60] Ranaut received Best Actress nominations at several award ceremonies, including Screen and Zee Cine.[61][62]Ranaut followed the success of Tanu Weds Manu by starring in a series of brief, glamorous roles in four other films of 2011: Game, Double Dhamaal, Rascals and Miley Naa Miley Hum. With the exception of Double Dhamaal, none of these films performed well.[22][23] In a review for Rascals, the critic Gaurav Malani wrote: "Kangana Ranaut is ill at ease in comedy. She struggles to hold her own and emerges as a bimbo in her act."[63] Ranaut later said that she did some of these films due to a dearth of film offers.[64][65] The following year, Ranaut portrayed a supporting role opposite Ajay Devgn in Priyadarshan's action thriller Tezz, another box office flop.[23]2013 onwards
The director Sanjay Gupta cast Ranaut in a brief role opposite John Abraham in the crime thriller Shootout at Wadala (2013) due to her ability to stand out in a predominantly male-centric film.[66] The Daily News and Analysis ' Tushar Joshi wrote that her role was written "to provide the sex quotient" and critic Vinayak Chakravorty opined that she "does not get much scope [...] beyond the steamy lovemaking grind".[67][68] Commercially, the film performed moderately well.[23]Ranaut achieved success later in 2013 for her portrayal of Kaya, a shapeshifting mutant, in Rakesh Roshan's science fiction film Krrish 3, alongside Hrithik Roshan, Priyanka Chopra and Vivek Oberoi.[69][70] When Rakesh Roshan first offered the role to her, she declined it due a disappointing prior association with him on Kites, in which Roshan had served as producer.[47] Following Ranaut's rejection, other actresses also turned down the role.[71] Roshan approached her again and after assuring her that the role would not be a minuscule one, Ranaut accepted the part.[47][72] Critics thought that Krrish 3 was entertaining but lacking in originality, though Ranaut's performance garnered praise.[22][73] The critic Sarita Tanwar of Daily News and Analysis said: "Kangana Ranaut is delightful as an alien making the weird hair and clothes work for her. She even manages to make you feel her pain. Quite an accomplishment that!"[74] With global ticket sales of 3 billion (US$47 million), the film emerged as one of the highest-grossing Bollywood films of all time, becoming Ranaut's most financially profitable venture.[23][75] Also that year, Ranaut played the eponymous lead in the musical drama Rajjo. The film was a critical and commercial failure and Ranaut's portrayal of a nautch girl was largely criticised.[23][76] Paloma Sharma of Rediff.com commented that "Kangana Ranaut struggles with her Mumbaiyya dialogues and is not as graceful in the dance sequences as one would have expected."[77]In 2014, Ranaut established herself as a leading actress of contemporary Hindi cinema when she featured alongside Rajkummar Rao and Lisa Haydon in the coming-of-age dramedy Queen; she also co-wrote the dialogues withAnvita Dutt Guptan.[78][79] The film tells the story of Rani, a naive girl who embarks on her honeymoon alone after her fiancé calls off their wedding. Ranaut, who describes herself as "independent and confident", reflected that the role was one of the toughest she had played, as the character's personality traits contrasted with her own.[80][81] The film and Ranaut's performance received unanimous acclaim from critics.[82] Devesh Sharma of Filmfare wrote that the fact that she "flits from one aspect of her character to another without breaking stride shows her maturity as an actor. Her efforts make you clap for Rani's small and big victories, you root for her character to come up trumps and are glad about the glorious transformation at the end."[83] With a worldwide total of 970 million (US$15 million), the film also emerged as a box office hit.[23][84] She won the Filmfare Award for Best Actress for the film.[85] Ranaut next played Alka Singh, an aggressive politician with a criminal record, in the black comedy Revolver Rani.[86] Critics expressed mixed views on the film, but were appreciative of Ranaut's performance, which Madhureeta Mukherjee of The Times of India described as "pure dynamite".[87][88] Later that year, Ranaut played the brief role of a medical intern who moonlights as a member of a vigilante group in the Karan Johar-produced political drama Ungli.[89]Upcoming projects
As of February 2015, Ranaut has completed work on I Love New Year, a romantic comedy with Sunny Deol, which after numerous delays is awaiting release.[90] Ranaut is filming a sequel to Tanu Weds Manu, entitled Tanu Weds Manu Returns, in which she will portray dual roles; she will reprise the character of Tanuja from the original and also portray a Haryanvi athlete.[91] She is also filming opposite Imran Khan for Katti Batti, a romantic comedy directed byNikhil Advani.[92] In addition, she has been cast for Sai Kabir's Divine Lovers, an Indian-French co-production about corruption co-starring Irrfan Khan, Sujoy Ghosh's adaptation of the Japanese novel The Devotion of Suspect X opposite Saif Ali Khan and an untitled project on mountaineering from the director Hansal Mehta.[93][94][95] Ranaut will also be making her production and directorial debut with an English language short film entitled The Touch, dealing with the relationship between a four-year old boy and a dog; she co-wrote the screenplay with an Australian writer and completed principal photography in America.[96][97]Personal life
Ranaut has stated that her initial years in the film industry were marred with difficulties as she was unprepared to be an actress.[21] She was conscious of her poor command of the English language and struggled to "fit in".[21]In a 2013 interview with Daily News and Analysis, Ranaut recollected:During the struggle, Ranaut found support in the actor Aditya Pancholi and his wife Zarina Wahab and considered them her "family away from home".[98] She was embroiled in a well publicised scandal when the media speculated on the nature of her relationship with Pancholi.[99] She declined to speak about it openly, though made several public appearances with him.[100] In 2007 it was reported that Ranaut had filed a police complaint against Pancholi for physically assaulting her under the influence of alcohol.[101][102] The following year Pancholi confirmed the affair in an interview, saying that he had been cohabiting with Ranaut in the past and accused her of owing him 2.5 million (US$39,000).[103] In response, Ranaut's spokesperson said that "[a]fter physically assaulting her in the middle of a road, he has no right to expect anything from her", adding that she had "already given 5 million (US$79,000) to [him] as a goodwill gesture".[103] Ranaut later said that the incident had left her "physically and mentally" damaged.[9]While filming Raaz: The Mystery Continues in 2008, Ranaut began a romantic relationship with co-star Adhyayan Suman.[104] On Suman's insistence that he focus on his professional career, the couple separated the following year.[105] From 2010 to 2012, Ranaut was involved in a long-distance romance with Nicholas Lafferty, an English doctor;[106][107] she described the relationship as "the most normal" she ever had, but the couple split amicably as she was not ready for marriage.[21][98] She has since maintained that she will never get married,[21][106] and has expressed a desire to not be bound by a relationship.[108]Ranaut lives in Mumbai with her sister Rangoli, who was the victim of an acid attack in 2006.[109] She makes yearly visits to her hometown of Bhambla.[9] A practicing Hindu, Ranaut follows the teachings of the spiritual leaderSwami Vivekananda and considers meditation to be "the highest form of worshipping God".[110] She practices vegetarianism and was listed as "India's hottest vegetarian" in a poll conducted by PETA in 2013.[111] Since 2009 Ranaut has been studying the dance form of kathak from the Nateshwar Nritya Kala Mandir.[112] She has said that the technical process of filmmaking is of tremendous interest to her,[113] and to better her understanding of it Ranaut enrolled in a two-month screenplay writing course at the New York Film Academy in 2014.[114][115] In an interview with Filmfare she said that despite her stardom, she wants to lead a normal life: "I don't want to lose my rights as a common person to learn and grow".[64]In the media
In the book Acting Smart: Your Ticket to Showbiz, Tisca Chopra describes Ranaut as a "free-spirited, original creative" person "who cannot really be slotted in a particular mould".[116] Ranaut is particularly known for her forthrightness in expressing her opinions in public on issues ranging from film to feminism.[5][117] A televised interview hosted by Anupama Chopra in which Ranaut spoke out against gender bias and nepotism in Bollywood went viral online, which led Sunaina Kumar of Tehelka to write: "In this age of cookie-cutter heroines with stock responses, Kangana Ranaut is refreshingly real and honest."[117]Analysing Ranaut's career, the journalist Parmita Uniyal, in 2014, noted that she "loves to challenge herself with tricky roles and manages to add a different dimension to her character every time."[16] A reviewer for Rediff.com described her as a "director's actress" who is susceptible to both "shine and crumble under the right/wrong guidance".[118] Anand L Rai (the director of Tanu Weds Manu) says that Ranaut actively pursues roles in which she can "work in her own space and not become a mere prop in the male-dominated Bollywood".[16] Alongside actress Vidya Balan, Ranaut has been credited for spearheading a movement that breaks stereotypes of a Hindi film heroine by playing the protagonist in films (most notably Queen) not starring a well-known male star.[119]Ranaut is considered a sex symbol and a style icon in India.[120][121] Analysing Ranaut's off-screen persona, Hindustan Times published that she was initially written off by Indian journalists due to her "funny accent" and the negative publicity generated by her troubled relationships; however, her defining fashion choices and her unconventional film roles eventually established her as a star.[122] Ranaut has frequently featured in listings of the most attractive and stylish celebrities in India. She held the ninth position on The Times of India 's listing of the "Most Desirable Woman" in 2010, 2011 and 2013.[123][124] Ranaut was featured on Verve 's listing of the most powerful women of 2010 and in 2012 she was named the "Best Dressed Personality" by the Indian edition of People magazine.[125][126] In 2013, Ranaut featured as one of the best-dressed women celebrities byVogue India.[127] The journalist Jagmeeta Thind Joy credits the actress for her "quirky, almost non-Bollywood take on personal style", adding that she "likes to shock and awe with her choices".[10]Filmography and awards
