The actress also told how she will balance her political and acting career. The offer came even after the release of ‘Gangster’ Talking to The Himachal Podcast, Kangana revealed that her family members have received offers to join politics from local political leaders many times. The actress said, ‘This was not the first time I was approached to join politics. I was offered a ticket immediately after my debut film ‘Gangster’. My great grandfather was also an MLA. So my family has already been very active in politics. My father also got an offer. When my sister Rangoli survived an acid attack, she also got an offer to join politics. I will not disappoint the people of Mandi Kangana further said in the interview, ‘I was approached in 2019 as well. If I was not ready for this, I would not have faced so much trouble. I am not looking at it as just a break. It was a very difficult decision and I am ready for it. I think God has given me this opportunity. The people of Mandi have given me this opportunity because they want someone to save them from corrupt people. I will not disappoint them.’ Working in films is easier than politics Talking about balancing politics and acting, Kangana said, ‘I am someone who follows her passion. I am also an actor, writer, director and producer in the film industry. Similarly, I will do whatever I can in my political career. Yes, I believe that working in films is easier than doing politics. It takes a lot of effort.’ Kangana has earlier also given a hint that she might leave films for politics. However, her next film on the work front is ‘Emergency’.
