KKN Gurugram Desk | Bollywood actress and Member of Parliament Kangana Ranaut recently took to Instagram to share an unfiltered selfie, proudly displaying her natural grey hair. In her post, she reflected on the joy of aging and contrasted the film industry’s often critical stance on visible signs of aging with the more accepting nature of politics. She recounted an incident where her film crew panicked upon noticing her grey strands, resorting to mascara and color sprays to conceal them. Kangana expressed contentment in being in a space where her aging appearance doesn’t diminish her value, stating, “Aging is such a joy.”

Politics: A Kinder Arena for Aging Women

Kangana highlighted the stark differences between the entertainment industry and the political sphere regarding aging women. She noted that politics tends to be more accommodating and respectful towards older women, allowing them to thrive without the pressure of maintaining a youthful appearance. This perspective resonates with her recent transition from acting to serving as a Member of Parliament for Mandi, Himachal Pradesh, where she feels her contributions are valued beyond physical aesthetics.

Hollywood Debut: ‘Blessed Be the Evil’

Expanding her horizons, Kangana is set to make her Hollywood debut in the upcoming horror drama ‘Blessed Be the Evil.’ Directed by Anurag Rudra, the film also stars Tyler Posey and Scarlet Rose Stallone. The narrative follows a Christian couple grappling with the aftermath of a miscarriage, who move into an abandoned farm with a dark history, only to confront malevolent forces. Filming is scheduled to commence this summer in New York.

A Multifaceted Career

Kangana’s journey from Bollywood to politics and now to Hollywood underscores her versatility and resilience. With multiple National Film Awards and a Padma Shri to her name, she continues to break barriers and redefine success on her terms. Her candid reflections on aging and her bold career moves serve as an inspiration, highlighting the importance of embracing change and challenging societal norms.
