No male actors ready to work with Kangana Ranaut, says new report

Kangana said, "I think everybody knows their own challenges. The roles have changed drastically and women who are in the position of power find it very hard around men. And that's because men are not used to women being in power. They get bullied, harassed and threatened."

Kangana slams Sonu Sood's walkout from 'Manikarnika', says he opposed female director

Earlier last week, Kangana was caught in a row with Sonu Sood after the latter walked out from Manikarnika: Queen of Jhansi. She had stated, "Sonu refused to work under a woman director. Even though the team suggested that they have full faith in me, it seems that Sonu had neither dates nor faith."
