Kangana Ranaut is known for making some pretty bold controversial statements. Has it come to the point where we wouldn't expect anything less?
She was recently asked what she thought the industry term "just good friends" meant and the Katti Batti actress responded with a statement that shouldn't surprise anyone, saying, "'just good friends' actually stands for f*ck buddy who has been slightly promoted." Slightly candid, but then again what would you expect from one of the most outspoken Bollywood actresses of today.

Before the national awards announcement, Ranaut voiced her opinion (again) about not receiving the other awards which were taken by Priyanka Chopra saying, "I was supposed to get all the awards. You think we don't come to know beforehand".

When talking about herself being (reportedly) one of the highest paid actresses in Bollywood today, Ranaut felt this was something everyone understood. Following her successful role in Queen and Tanu Weds Manu Returns, Ranaut has signed a new film for Rs 11 crore. Whilst at an event she said, "I think the kind of roles or films I do it literally takes a year . . . so, I think it is justified." Was this a dig at other actresses? Was she trying to say they don't work as hard as she does or don't have demanding roles?
Ranaut's digs are not always at fellow actresses, and maybe her digs at times can be justified. She was offered Rs 2 crore to endorse a fairness cream, however in true Kangana Ranaut style, she turned down the endorsement with a valid reason. She stated her sister Rangoli is dusky, yet beautiful and it would be an insult to her if she went ahead with the deal.

The best part about Ranaut is that she is not afraid to admit that she is bold. Infact in one statement she said, "I am a very bold person. For seven to eight years, I was was not in touch with my parents. So I took the responsibility of every decision. My parents understand that . . . being bold on the screen is not dangerous, but when it comes to your opinion and choices (in real life), that boldness is a lot more dangerous."
Ranaut will next be seen alongside Imran Khan in Katti Batti. We wonder what bold statements she'll come up with in the future.
