Kangana Says 'Rangoon' Character Fiery, Great Dancer

Darpan News Desk IANS, 30 Jan, 2016 01:43 PM
    Actress Kangana Ranaut says that Julia, the character she plays in "Rangoon", is extremely fierce and fiery while also being a great dancer and a great action star.
     
    "In 'Rangoon', I play an action star of the 1940s. And Julia is a woman who is very fierce, very fiery, she's a great dancer and a great action star," said Kangana present at the unveiling of the Sephora store on Saturday.
     
    A picture of Kangana with a whip in her hand from the sets was captured recently, which had people think that she would indulge in some action for the film. She was also snapped while she was learning horse-riding for the film and had confessed that the preparations for the film had left her physically exhausted.
     
    Kangana, who is famous for her curly hair right since her debut "Gangster", is currently sporting straight and short hair. She confirmed that it was her look for the film and not her own style.
     
    "For the film, I have this look.. it's not styled like that. It's more vintagy, more wavy which you'll get to see in the film," she said.
     
    The Vishal Bhardwaj-directed 'Rangoon' also stars Saif Ali Khan and Shahid Kapoor. Shahid plays a soldier in the film while Saif enacts the role of a filmmaker. Reportedly, the film is along the lines of the Hollywood classic "Casablanca" and is set during the World War II period.
