Kangana felicitated with two letters and bouquets from Big B

27th May 2015

After her stunning performance in latest, 'Tanu Weds Manu Returns', the controversial actress, Kangana Ranaut got appreciation in abundance and congratulating her twice in surprise, once for playing Tanu and other for playing Datto.

The legend of Indian cinema, Amitabh Bachchan sent two letters and two bouquets for Kangana for her double role.

Kangana expressed, "Mr Bachchan sent me a letter for 'Queen' too, but that was written in English and that too, the level of English that he himself speaks, which is high end. This time, he has written a poem and that too in Hindi, so I could read it out as is to my parents as they understand only Hindi. I felt like his two letters were my two medals. I am going to frame these and keep them for life as my memory. For my parents who are not artistes and don't understand performance, this is their proof that I have performed. Mr Bachchan has written about the minutest of details of my performance which makes it so fulfilling for an artiste, coming from a legend like him.This time he has sent me not just one, but two letters and bouquets, one for Tanu and the other for Datto. He wrote, 'It happens very rarely that our eyes fill up watching a performance. You made me cry'. He said for Datto, 'For the girl who is Tanu's lookalike called Datto, I don't know her but please extend my warm wishes to her.' What broke me down reading his letters was when he wrote, 'Main apne aap ko bhagyashali samajhta hoon, ki main uss udyog se juda hoon, jisme Kangana basti hai' (I feel fortunate to be a part of an industry in which Kangana is a part). Being an outsider, I was ridiculed for the longest time with people openly making fun of me. But the flowers Mr Bachchan sent have not just filled up my room, they have left me overwhelmed."

The film directed by Aanand L Rai garnered huge applaud around the country and abroad and smashed the box office.
