Amid Kangana Ranaut’s growing political career, fans are questioning whether she is planning to move away from acting. At the trailer launch of ‘Emergency’, Kangana addressed these concerns. She said, “Whether I will continue acting or not, I want people to decide.” The actress added, “I never declared myself a leader. It was people’s choice to support me in the elections.” Kangana Ranaut further added, ‘Similarly, if Emergency is successful and people want more from me, and if I find success in acting, I will continue with it. If not, and if politics offers more opportunities, I will adapt accordingly. I will go where I am needed and valued.’
