Ever since Kangana Ranaut expressed her support to Prime Minister Narendra Modi with statements like "he is the rightful leader of the democracy and he deserves to come to power again," speculations have been rife that Bollywood's Queen might just be considering a career in politics.
In fact, PeepingMoon.com had exclusively reported that the BJP is actually said to be considering fielding Kangana from the Gurdaspur constituency in Punjab from which late actor Vinod Khanna last contested and won. But Kangana currently feels that her hands are full with film commitments but she certainly isn't opposed to the idea of joining politics in the future.
In an interview with a leading daily the actress said, "I am currently in the midst of Manikarnika, Mental Hai Kya and we've just announced Panga. Whenever I decide to take up the path, I will do so with utmost sophistication, dignity and full focus. I'm not a sissy to say politics is too demanding; I have to be extremely selfish to say it isn't my cup of tea."
Further hinting at the country's youth who are not hesitant to jump into politics, she added, "There are nations across the globe where every citizen is trained to join the Army, if need be. We must inculcate that culture here as well. If it comes to me, I should be able to take the lead. Our country's youth is intelligent and fiery, and we should set the right example for them."
Claiming that serving the nation is her "dream", she said that a politician should be nothing more than a government servant. "I can't be an actor with an interest in movies, and at the same time, pursue a future in politics. I don't want any conflict to arise over my service to the nation, not even my family's expectations of me. I have set high standards for myself."
Will Kangana give herself up to politics in 2019 or not, is still left to be seen.
