Kangana Ranaut fought with father for acting dream

Taking to Twitter, Kangana Ranaut shared a picture of her father, and shared how he attained a notorious popularity during his youth, becoming a part of gang wars in college and earning the reputation of a goon. The Queen star wrote that he even owned licensed rifle and guns, and that her ‘ribs trembled’ when he’d scold her, as it was like he ‘roared.’ However, despite his aggressive nature, Kangana fought with him at the age 15 and left home, becoming the ‘first Baaghi Rajput woman at 15’, she tweeted.  

She added that her father wanted to make her the ‘best doctor in the world’ and thought he was being a ‘revolutionary papa’ by giving her education in best institutions. However, Kangana was not keen on it, and revealed that he once tried to slap her when she refused to go to school. She shared that she famously told him “if you slap me I will slap you back”.

Calling Bollywood a 'chillar industry', she also stated that people were out to 'fix' her, but she was always a ‘Baaghi’ (rebel) and became one of the 'prominent voices in the nation'. She stated that she would 'fix' those who tried to 'fix' her. 

The relationship seem to have improved over the years, as Kangana occasionally shares posts with her father, be it a video where he was concerned about her, or posing with him at family gatherings.
