Another feather is being added to Kangana Ranaut’s hat. She made her directorial debut with the political thriller Emergency and was elected to the Mandi, Himachal Pradesh, assembly on a Bhartiya Janata Party ticket within the last year. In her native state, she will shortly operate The Mountain Story, her first cafe.
On Wednesday, Kangana took to her Instagram Stories to share a clip from an old video posted by a fan page. The clip is from the News18 Actresses Roundtable in 2013, in which Kangana is heard answering moderator Rajeev Masand’s question, “10 years from now, what would you like to be doing?” While Deepika Padukone claimed, “Still doing the same thing, ya?,” Kangana volunteered to answer the question differently.
“I’d like to open a restaurant where I’d like to have the world menu. I’ve eaten all over the world, and I’m carrying amazing recipes. I’d like to have a very very beautiful, little cafeteria somewhere. I’m very good with food,” Kangana said, to which Deepika responded, “I’ll be your first client” before the two laughed it off. Kangana, while reposting the clip on Wednesday, wrote, “If walking the talk had a face ha ha it would be me… also @deepikapadukone you should be my first client.”
