RS 10 Million for Kangna to go BALD?


Pretty Kangna Ranaut known for long locks is faced with a great dilemma. She has been offered a hefty sum of more than Rs 10 million to get the bald look for a new Tamil film. This is to recall that Kangna has been very popular in the southern film industry, especially after the success of her first Tamil film, 'Dhaam Dhoom'. South Indian directors are crazy about her. Answering to our query, the Tamil movie director says that his action thriller demands the actress in a bald state for a few scenes! Though Kangna hasn't yet accepted the offer, she hasn't rejected either.

The sum offered is too huge to decline. Besides, she says that the role is a very challenging one. Going bold isn't too much for the pretty girl but going bald is, as she would lose her dearest locks. As far as playing a bold character is concerned, she would soon be seen as an infamous and unfortunate model Geetanjali, in Madhur Bhandarkar's forthcoming 'Fashion'. But, going bald onscreen is too much for a young actor like her. Very few actresses like Nandita Das, Shabana Azmi, Lisa Ray and Seema Biswas have gone bald to play for their parts in Bollywood. Let Kangna decide for herself.
