The film, which starred Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh, went on to become a critical and commercial success.
Kangana Ranaut confessed that she had been offered the lead role in the film but declined it due to her prior commitment to another project. Although she didn’t specify the project, it’s rumored to be ‘Queen’, which released in 2014 and earned her widespread critical acclaim.
The actress expressed her admiration for Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s work and acknowledged that turning down ‘Ram-Leela’ was a significant mistake. She praised Bhansali’s unique storytelling style and his ability to create memorable characters.
Kangana Ranaut’s decision to open up about her career regret has sparked a conversation about the importance of taking calculated risks in the film industry. While ‘Queen’ did wonders for her career, one can’t help but wonder how her career trajectory might have changed if she had accepted the offer to work with Bhansali.
The actress’s honesty has earned her praise from fans and fellow industry members, who appreciate her willingness to share her experiences and lessons learned.
