Addressing why it took her so long to finally deliver a film like Dhaakad and how does it feel now that it's finally happened, Kangana Ranaut said, “I've had a lot of low points, when at my best time I refused a lot of Khan-led films, Kumar-led films, Kapoor-led films. People used to call me up and ask, 'What you're doing, why are you're refusing all these great films?' I used to refuse to go to award functions, I would refuse so many top magazine photoshoots, and people would wonder, What's wrong with her? They would keep telling me, 'You don't know what you're doing, you're making a big mistake, you're at such a high, you should not be giving up on all this.' But I always thought to myself, how is this benefiting me, how is this helping me grow as both an artist an individual? So, I rather waited for what's right and then this (Dhaakad) came along.”
Dhaakad releases in theatres on 20th May.
