Kangana Ranaut is one of the finest talents of the industry. An epitome of versatility, she has entertained the audiences with many blockbuster films to her credit. Apart from her professional front, she is best known for her fearless and outspoken self which often leads her into controversies as well.

In a heartfelt video, Kangana recalled her initial struggling days into Bollywood and also revealed how she overcame them. While the actress is not on social media, her team keeps all her fans updated with her messages and videos.

In a video shared by the team on Sunday, Kangana says: “This time is not bad time, do not think of it like that. Bad times are actually good times. Friends, I was 15 or 16 when I ran away from my house, and I used to feel like I could grab the stars with my hands. After I left my house, I was a film star and a drug addict within 1.5 - 2 years of it.”

“My life was so messed up, I was with certain type of people from whom only death could have saved me. All of this happened in my life only at the time when I was only a teenager,” she added.

Kangana further talked about a friend who changed her life by introducing her to spirituality. “At the moment a very good friend came into my life who introduced me to Yoga and gave me a book Rajayoga which has very good processes. After that I took Swami Vivekanand as my guru and under his guidance I groomed myself a lot,” she said.

“I would have been lost in the crowd if those challenging times didn’t come in my life. Without the spiritual guidance, I wouldn’t have been able to develop my will-power, I wouldn’t have been able to sharpen my intellect or groom my talent or develop my emotional health,” she added.

Kangana also wished all her fans on the fifth day of Navratri and is currently spending time with her family in Himachal Pradesh.
