Responding to Sonam Kapoor's off-handed remark that if a person is not good looking, they are considered as good actors in Bollywood on her recent appearance on Koffee With Karan, actressKangna Ranaut said that a story is more important than looking beautiful on screen.
Kangna, who played a fashion disaster in Queen and a style victim in Revolver Rani, says she is not scared of stepping into non-glamorous roles if they offer a chance to perform.
Kangna, who played a fashion disaster in Queen and a style victim in Revolver Rani, says she is not scared of stepping into non-glamorous roles if they offer a chance to perform.
The 27-year-old actress, who won the audience's love and critical acclaim for both of her films, says there is a misconception that heroines should look beautiful onscreen.
"Films are not meant to make people fashion-oriented or glorify their beauty. Films are about good stories and it could be of anyone. It could also be of an ugly girl," Kangna said in an interview.
The actress said rather than her looks in Revolver Rani, where she played a corrupt politician, she was more sceptical about the genre of the film.
"Revolver Rani is a non-genre film and I was a bit sceptical because I know that these films are very hard to make acceptable in our society. We need some good scriptwriting in the Hindi film industry because I feel that our films are very regressive and repeat the same old formula," she added.
The Fashion star was in Delhi to receive the actor of the year honour at NDTV's Indian of the year award. The trophy was handed to her by Aamir Khan.
Kangna said, "It's credible to be a part of this honour. I said no initially. But later, I felt that I should attend this because it's not one of those filmi awards. Here, they acknowledge people on every level and from every field."
