Kangana Ranaut took to Instagram to drop a selfie, where she was dressed in a red and golden saree, and also wore traditional jewellery. The Tanu Weds Manu star shared that she was the Tirupati Balaji Temple in Andhra Pradesh.

She conveyed her good wishes to her fans and followers. Kangana hoped that it would be a 'memorable year' for all.

The four-time National Award winner often expresses her thoughts on religion and also regularly visits temples. The 33-year-old visited the temples in Uttar Pradesh a few weeks ago.

At that time, she had shared images of the various rituals she had performed and the tales of the various gods being worshipped in those temples. She had also addressed Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and hoped the heavy security at some of the venues is eased, in order to give more access to the public.

Kangana had a year filled with ups and downs in 2021. The actor faced numerous legal setbacks throughout the year, for her controversial statements.

There were numerous cases on her, including the latest First Information Report over her comments allegedly against the Sikh community in the wake of the Government withdrawing the controversial farm laws. She recently appeared before the police over this case. 

Among the positives, she delivered one of the most acclaimed performances of her career as former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa in Thalaivii.

She was honoured with the fourth National Award of her career, for her work in the films Manikarnika and Panga. The artist also turned a producer this year, as her film Tiku Weds Sheru went on floors.

The Himachal native worked on many films this year, like Dhaakad, Tejas and more, which will release next year. She is also set to turn a full-fledged director with the film Emergency, where she plays the role of former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi.
