Kangana Ranaut recently wrapped production on her highly anticipated film Emergency, which she celebrated with a party on Wednesday. Kangana Ranaut will play former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi in the period drama, which she will direct. She interacted with media outside the Emergency wrap-up party. The actor was asked about mortgaging all of her property to complete the show.
Kangana announced on January 21 that she was wrapping up the shoot of Emergency as an actor. And she revealed in an Instagram post that the journey 'wasn't a smooth sailing ride'. Kangana had previously stated that she had to mortgage all her properties. Every single thing that she owned' to complete the film's schedule in various parts of the country, including Assam.
Videos of Kangana speaking about her mortgage were shared on paparazzi and fan pages. Kangana told reporters, "Main jo kam than leti hoon usko anjam de kar hi rahti hoon. Mere liye ye koi badi baat nahi hai. Ek minute mein main koi bhi decision leti hoon. Lekin mere liye woh zyada ho gaya tha ki shooting ke time pe banks ke chakkar lagana, evaluations karni, phir humari shooting bhi ruk rahi thi. Yeh mere liye thoda sa hectic that. Lekin koi bhi cheese daun pe lagana mere liye bohut bada koi decision nahi hai. (I always accomplish a task if I set out to do something. Mortgaging all my property to complete an Emergency is not a big deal for me. I take big decisions within minutes. The only struggle was visiting banks constantly during the shoot. This hampered our work)."
The actor recalled her early days in Bollywood, saying she didn't care about 'possessions'. And she said she was willing to start over if she lost all her property after the release of Emergency. Kangana said, "Main iss sheher mein ₹500 leke ayi this. Aur main phir se agar puri tarha se barbad ho jati hoon toh main phirse pure tarha se khadi ho sakti hoon. Mujh mein itna confidence aur itni himmat hai. Mere liye koi mayne nahi rakhte hai possessions. (I came to Mumbai with only ₹500. So even if I am completely ruined, I have the confidence and strength to stand up on my feat once again. Possessions hold no meaning for me)."
