Kangana Ranaut: I don't like anything about my job

December 3, 2016

Mumbai, Dec 3: She may have bagged National awards and won a lot of acclaim for her work, but actress Kangana Ranaut says she does not like anything' about her job. The 29-year-old actress says she does not like what she goes through while portraying different characters in her films.

Kangana"I don't like anything about my job, to be honest. I don't like to meet these crazy people who I have to, as my characters. I don't like the situations and circumstances my characters go through. I don't like to emote to imaginary circumstances."

"I don't like to go in mud and water when it is zero degree. Honestly I don't like anything about my job." When asked how does she deal with it, she quips, "I remind myself the bills that I have to pay."

Kangana was in conversation with Manu Joseph at the Times LitFest here. The 29-year-old says when she is approaching a new character in a film, her process involves 'sculpting' the imaginary person in front of her and conversing with her, before finally fully knowing the role. The process, however, can be too taxing at times with the character almost overpowering the real self which can be dangerous for actors.

"Actors need to bring about certain sensitivity by stimulating to situations which don't exist, where you can almost behave mechanically to situations. Like 'action' and you have to enact. Over a period, you can grow to be emotionally unhealthy, or sensitive." The 'Queen' star recalls how she went through a very emotional process while shooting for 'Katti Batti'.

"When I was playing a cancer patient in 'Katti Batti', I was enacting my death scenes, I would cry all the time even for the smallest things. I had become so sensitive that I had to literally take care of myself, that it doesn't affect my emotional and physical health."

Kangana says, it is in this regard that if not an actress, she would rather be a director as soon as she can. "I would rather be a director. There is always that next step that you want to take, but that doesn't mean that I cannot (get) enough to unleash my creative forces where I already am. At some point I would like to (be a director), as soon as I can.

Los Angeles, May 24: Filmmaker Frank Marshall, one of the producers behind Jurassic World: Dominion, says the forthcoming film is not a conclusion of the franchise.

Colin Trevorrow, who rebooted Steven Spielberg's blockbuster Jurassic Park franchise with 2015's Jurassic World, is back on the director's chair after sitting out on second movie Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (2018).

Asked about the upcoming movie, Marshall told Collider: "It's the start of a new era."

Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard are coming back for the third film, which will also feature original stars of 1993's Jurassic Park -- Laura Dern, Jeff Goldblum and Sam Neill.

The producer also revealed how he sees the film franchise extending into the future.

"The dinosaurs are now on the mainland amongst us, and they will be for quite some time, I hope," Marshall said.

The film was three weeks into production when it was shut down over coronavirus concerns, but the producer said the team has the sets built in London and will be "back in business" once they have guidelines from the British government.

Dominion is still slated to be released on its scheduled date of June 11, 2021.

New Delhi, Jun 22: Amidst a strain in the ties between India and Nepal, actor Manisha Koirala, a Nepali national, on Monday urged people of both the countries to be not "aggressive and disrespectful" towards each other.

Koirala, a leading Bollywood actor of her times, took to Twitter to request people to let the respective government resolve the issues and stay "civil."

"A heartfelt request please let's not be aggressive and disrespectful..we are in this situation together..our respective Gov's will resolve the issue. In the meantime we can be civil ..I remain hopeful," she tweeted.

Earlier last week, Nepal 's Upper House of Parliament endorsed a proposal to discuss the Constitution amendment bill to update the country's map that incorporates parts of Indian territory.

Nepal's House of Representatives had on June 10 endorsed a proposal seeking consideration of a constitution amendment bill for change of country's map after a lengthy discussion. Nepal has made offers to India to hold "diplomatic talks to resolve the territorial issue" between the two countries.

New Delhi has said that the updated map is "not based on historical facts and evidence" and termed the claims by Nepal as artificial enlargement.

External Affairs Ministry spokesperson Anurag Srivastava also said that the move is violative of the current understanding to hold talks on outstanding boundary issues.
