National award winner Kangana Ranuat, who has managed to carve a niche in Bollywood on her own, says the only thing that has worked in her favour is acting and wide acceptance from the audience. Born in a small town in Himachal Pradesh, Kangana Ranaut moved to Delhi and entered the modelling world and soon joined a theatre group, which led to acting. Filmmaker Anurag Basu saw her at a cafe and offered her 'Gangster' and she lapped it up. The film did well at the box office and brought her appreciation. It was Madhur Bhandarkar's 'Fashion' that turned tables for her as she won the National award for Best Supporting Role for the film. She continued her success story with "Once Upon A Time in Mumbai", "Raaz-2" and "Tanu Weds Manu" amid a string flops until "Shootout at Wadala", which was a hit.

But, Kangana Ranaut is happy with the way her career has shaped up. "I did not have any film connections or anybody supporting me here... I am happy to have reached here where I am today. The only thing that has worked for me here is acting, I know how to act. People like me, Irrfan Khan, we come from normal background and we have survived so far despite not having any connections... it's a great thing," said Kangana Ranaut. "I feel at some level we connected with the audience and they want to see us again and that is why we keep getting work," she said.

The 26-year-old will be next seen a role with grey shades in superhero film Krrish 3. "I look at doing exciting roles and not something that is done on regular basis. I got the opportunity for 'Krrish 3' and I grabbed it. I don't see it as a negative role, she is not a vamp. She is a girl who is beautiful, sexy and wicked. She has a little love story with Hrithik," Kangana added.
