Mental
Hai
Kya
star
Kangana
Ranaut
believes
as
a
celebrity
it
is
her
responsibility
to
work
towards
breaking
the
stigma
attached
to
mental
health.
When
asked
about
her
views
on
the
way
Hindi
film
industry
treats
the
topic
on-screen,
Kangana
told
PTI,
"I
realised
there
was
so
much
stigma
attached
to
being
different.
So,
I
thought
we
as
influencers
need
to
stand-up
and
break
these
notions
and
address
this
subject."
Produced
by
Ekta
Kapoor,
Mental
Hai
Kya
is
Kangana's
second
collaboration
with
Rajkummar
Rao
after
Queen.
The
actor
is
full
of
praise
for
her
co-star,
who
has
been
enjoying
a
great
run
in
Bollywood
with
back-to-back
projects.
"He
is
a
star
today.
He
is
a
brilliant
actor
and
a
very
hardworking
co-star.
I
have
seen
his
work
and
it
was
definitely
a
great
experience,"
she
said.
Directed
by
National
Award-winning
filmmaker
Prakash
Kovelamudi,
the
film
also
stars
Amyra
Dastur
and
Jimmy
Sheirgill.
It
will

Besides
this,
she
will
be
seen
in
Manikarnika:
The
Queen
of
Jhansi,
set
to

"I
believe
in
giving
100
per
cent
to
all
the
movies
I
am
associated
with
and
I
will
continue
to
take
up
roles
which
appeal
to
me,
and
that
will
make
a
difference
to
the
audience,"
said
Kangana.
The
actor
has
been
appointed
as
the
brand
ambassador
of

a
women's

brand
by
House
of
Anita
Dongre,
which
launched
its
Fall
'18
collection
'Gypsy
Heart'
last
evening.
Talking
about
her
personal
sense
of
style,
Kangana
said
she
does
not
believe
in
following
any
particular
trend.
"One
way
to
look
happy
and
feel
confident
is
to
be
comfortable
in
what
you
are
wearing.
I
wear
what
I
like
and
what
I
feel
I
look
good
in.
My
style
differs
from
being
individualistic,
fierce,
to
feminine,
vintage
and
goddess-like."
