For this, Kangana had to undergo a major physical transformation several times.
She recently took to Instagram to share her experience, detailing that doing all that in six months left “permanent stretch marks”. "Gaining 20 kgs in 6 months and losing it all within 6 months that too in my thirties messed up many things in my body… I also have permanent stretch marks as well but art comes to life with a price and more often than not price is the artist him/herself,” she wrote.
Earlier too in an interview the actress had mentioned , "In my 30s, I had to gain 20 kgs for Thalaivi and do Bharatanatyam, it left my back severely damaged but no bigger gratification than to play a role to perfection.”
