The description of the piece read, "Indulge in the richness of careful craftsmanship as you drape yourself in the finest organza mulberry silk saree. The hand-drawn pansy floral print adds the beauty of nature to this ensemble. Two floral prints come together to form a beautiful synergy that is this saree, to be worn with either edge as the palla. Delicate hand hemming finishes the edges beautifully."
The six-yard costs only Rs 21,000, a perfect fit for Kangana's sartorial choices as a politician. Meanwhile, the blouse is sold separately at Rs 6,000.
At the summit, when Kangana was asked if she already had plans of joining politics, she said, "The decision is always with the party but I have always openly supported BJP regardless of whether I am a party member or not. I have always fought for BJP and supported Bharat. I always felt that my natural alignment of ideology or personality has always been that of a tadkta-bhadkta right-wing or a glorious right-wing personality."
Kangana added, "To be a leader, people should say that 'she should be a leader'. I think it's a different kind of role and responsibility."
Kangana was announced as the Bharatiya Janata Party candidate from Himachal Pradesh's Mandi on Sunday. Kangana Ranaut has been fielded from Himachal Pradesh's Mandi, a stronghold of Congress. On the work front, Kangana will be next seen in 'Emergency', which also marks her first solo directorial. The film is a depiction of the most controversial spectacle in the history of Indian Democracy. Standing at the core of this is one of the most sensational leaders of all time the first woman Prime Minister of India Indira Gandhi and features Kangana in the titular role of the late politician.
