The film industry has often been known as a ‘male-dominated industry’ with most of the top heroes earning much more than the women, and their films traditionally doing better than women-led ventures. One of the female actors who proved this theory wrong had been Kangana Ranaut, who delivered numerous successes, where the film’s fate rested on her shoulders. The biggest one in this list had been Tanu Weds Manu Returns, a blockbuster, that the actor recently remembered with a sweet anecdote.
