Kangana Ranaut, the acclaimed actor and BJP candidate, has stepped into the realm of politics with her nomination filing from the Mandi constituency for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections. Accompanied by her mother, Asha Ranaut, and sister, Rangoli Chandel, Kangana exuded pride and gratitude towards the people of Mandi, attributing her electoral debut to their unwavering support and affection.
Dressed in a resplendent green saree, adorned with a traditional Himachali cap, Kangana radiated a blend of cultural reverence and political fervor as she formalized her candidacy. Reflecting on this pivotal moment, she expressed her profound sense of honor in contesting from Mandi, drawing parallels between her success in Bollywood and her aspirations in the political arena.
“The people of Mandi and their love for me have brought me here,” Kangana remarked, acknowledging the pivotal role played by the constituents in shaping her political journey. She highlighted the transformative strides taken by Mandi’s women, transcending barriers to excel in diverse domains, from the military to education and governance.
Asha Ranaut, Kangana’s mother, exuded confidence in her daughter’s electoral prospects, affirming her belief in Kangana’s commitment to public service. With a track record of advocating for societal change and empowerment, Kangana’s foray into politics signifies a continuation of her dedication to the welfare of her constituents.
Offering her heartfelt wishes for Kangana’s “new journey,” Rangoli Chandel underscored the significance of this momentous step towards representing the people of Mandi in the Lok Sabha. However, Kangana’s electoral path is not devoid of challenges, as she faces a formidable opponent in Vikramaditya Singh, scion of the illustrious Singh family, representing the Congress party.
Amidst her political endeavors, Kangana continues to enthrall audiences with her cinematic prowess, with her upcoming film “Emergency” poised to captivate viewers with its portrayal of former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi’s life. Scheduled for release on June 14th, the film marks Kangana’s directorial debut, underscoring her multifaceted talent and creative vision.
As the political landscape in Himachal Pradesh braces for the impending elections on June 1st, Kangana’s bid for parliamentary representation symbolizes a convergence of artistry and advocacy, epitomizing her unwavering commitment to both her craft and her constituents.
