Taking a look at Kangana's career, she has come a long way. Kangana was only 16 when she was hired by a modelling agency, after which several offers came her way. Talking about her initial days, she said, 'I started as a small-town girl and it was not a conscious leap where I decided that 'Okay fine, I have to emerge as this style icon'. While growing up, I was quite experimental with my looks. It was not like that I didn't stand out back home in my little village where I grew up. In fact, my fashion sense was quite outrageous. I remember wearing torn shorts and a straw hat and going to market, which sort of scandalised everyone.'
