I can have more than one wedding, says Kangana Ranaut

July 25, 2016

New Delhi, Jul 25: Actress Kangana Ranaut has quipped she is open to walking down the aisle more than once in her life.

Kangana, 29, whose personal life has been in the spotlight since her entry into Bollywood, feels there's nothing wrong in getting married again if things don't work out.

ranautWhile interacting with the media as a showstopper for designer friend Manav Gangwani at the India Couture Week, the actress said, "Manav and I were talking about my wedding. I told him for first wedding for sure, I will wear his design."

When asked if she was certain she would have more than one wedding, Kangana said smilingly, "Why not? If one can happen, many more can happen!"

This was the second time the three-time National Award winner walked for Gangwani, who presented his collection, "Begum-e-Jannat".

Kangana glowed in a golden-burgundy lehenga-choli. The open hair, bright make-up and other accessories enhaced her look.

"My collection is an ode to a dear friend, I lost recently. I narrated the idea and the collection to Kangana and she is all about friendships. So, she agreed. I have been friends with Kangana since she began her career. She is special," Gangwani said.

The designer added he was happy to have Kangana's support on the occasion that marked the debut of his label Manav Gangwani India.

The actress, who has earlier collaborated with high-end brands for western women wear, expressed wish to venture into designing Indian silhouettes.

Meanwhile, Gangwani's collection was an amalgamation of sentiments evoked by the word 'Jannat', meaning paradise.

The palette for the creations featured ivory as pure, blacks, royal navy, emeralds and wine.

Accentuated by the timeless Zardozi handwork in antique vintage gold to add that touch of royalty, every garment seemed to have thoughtfully crafted to induce the fragrance and grandeur of times gone by.

The designer said the collection epitomizes the essence of every woman, which is timeless, romantic, demure, yet elegant with an undertone of drama and mystery.

The outfits for women included kaftaans, sarees, lehengas and angrakhas.

Complimenting the garments were artfully fashioned Dupattas. Gangwani attempted at reinventing the age-old silhouette of the Angrakha, a cross-over open silhouette that is feminine, yet retains its royal demeanor.

The classic sherwani for men was tweaked, inherent with the old world flamboyance yet infused with contemporary styles.

The director, best known for his epic fantasy hit Baahubali series, said they got tested after they developed mild fever recently which subsided by itself.

In a subsequent tweet, Rajamouli said he and his kin are asymptomatic and “feeling better”. They are, however, following all the precautions and instructions.

Washington, Jun 13: American actor Gwyneth Paltrow is opening up about her experience during the coronavirus quarantine.

According to Fox News, the 47-year-old star explained to Shape magazine, the July-August cover issue of which she has graced -- that she hadn't realised just "how much the normal pace of life was overburdening our bodies, our minds, and our nervous systems."

The Goop founder explained, "As we have been forced into the confines of our own homes, that has brought up a lot of emotional distress for some, and for others, it has been very peaceful. In my case, I have experienced both."

The 'Iron Man' actor said that she has now started to "settle down" in her "brain and body."

She added of the lockdown, "It has given me new perspective about how much I will take on going forward."

Paltrow noted that before the quarantine, she was always trying to get "wellness moments" in, but she wasn't "really decompressing" until the weekends or on vacations.

"Now I feel different, letting my body go to sleep and wake up in its natural rhythm, having my kids around all the time, eating meals together and having meaningful conversations," she said of her children,16-year-old daughter Apple, and 14-year-old son Moses, whom she shares with ex Chris Martin.

Paltrow noted, "We linger at the table; our dinners are an hour and a half long. My heart feels fuller, and my mind feels calmer in that respect."

For how she de-stresses, the 'Spider-Man: Homecoming' actor said, "I try to do exercises every day for my back and neck because of all the Zoom calls I'm on."

In addition, Paltrow says she and her husband Brad Falchuk go for walks at least three to four times per week. She also takes online fitness and yoga classes.
