Kangana Ranaut Reveals Her Look In Rangoon Starring Shahid & Saif

Her stupendous portrayal of an under-confident Rani in Queen won her not just a Best Actress National Film Award, but also earned her the epithet of Bollywood's 'Queen'. But Kangana Ranaut finds it "funny".

"This 'Queen' of Bollywood tag is quite funny! Now I'm playing Rani Lakshmibai. So after that film, people will write on my grave 'Rani Lakshmibai died here'," Kangana quipped during a chat.

The acclaimed actress, who has carved her niche in the Hindi film industry with power-packed women-centric roles in movies like Gangster - A Love Story, Fashion and Tanu Weds Manu, says her life can be clearly divided into a "pre-'Queen' and post-'Queen'" eras.

"If there's a biopic on me, it will be pre-'Queen' and post-'Queen'... pre-'Queen' was a different world -- black and white -- and after 'Queen', my world has become colourful, because I'm getting a lot of offers that I think I deserve and I always thought I deserve, but would have never got," said the actress, who's known for being outspoken.

Now, she says "I'm as good as it can get".
