I didn’t even have clothes for award shows: Kangana on early struggles

Actress Kangana Ranaut has said that during her initial struggling days, she didn’t even have clothes to wear for award functions. And, had it not been for a struggling fashion designer who supported her then, she wouldn’t have attended some of these shows.

 “I remember after Gangster, I was going for these award functions where I was getting an award. I didn’t have clothes to wear. I didn’t even have any money to buy those clothes. So there was this designer friend of mine Rick Roy who used to sponsor my clothes. He was struggling himself but his parents were supporting him.”

 The actress said that it was because of Rick that she was even able to attend some of those awards shows. She added, “He would make these gowns for me and I’d wonder where he’s getting the money from. But it was wonderful that somebody came to my help. Otherwise, how would I even go to these functions? I wouldn’t have made it to those award nights. I didn’t have clothes. Otherwise, I used to wear a few Mango tops and for me, those were the luxury brands. That was the best I could afford at that point.”
