Actress says people have shown me the worst side that a human can ever see of another human.

National award winning actress -- Kangana Ranaut -- had her ups and downs before she was finally recognised for her groundbreaking performance in Queen.

But the leading lady of Bollywood isn't willing to let go off her past. Kangana recently opened up about her struggling period in Bollywood. According to a report published in NDTV, the actress has disclosed that she was treated badly during the initial stage of her career.

"What happens is that a heroine is always dependent on the producer or the hero. So no one thought, 'What if someone becomes Kangana Ranaut and then she will never work with me as producer or actor'," she added.




Kangana also believes that it's about time Bollywood should work on the principles of gender equality. "They should have some shame before they treat women badly. They assume 'kya karegi. She is just a girl'," she said.

The actress also opened up about the "double faced" people she has encountered during her career. "They have shown me the worst side that a human can ever see of another human. And these people have double faces.

"I see them, how they would deal with men and how they dealt with me. They kept their worst side for me. Now these people have been tamed," she said.



Kangana -- who is the highest paid Bollywood actress - said, "My point is, today I am charging what I am charging because I hold some significance. If two three more women like me come up then they will be scared of women."

Talking about how difficult it is to be successful in Bollywood, Kangana said, "Even if they want to make it big, they have to come with the security of either a boyfriend or a father. Something. They can't do it on their own because it is so hard to be in this world where such evil people live."
