Actor Kangana Ranaut and her sister Rangoli Ranaut feature on the latest cover of a women's magazine. The cover celebrates women power and highlights Rangoli's struggles to establish herself after surviving an acid attack.
At the launch of the cover, Kangana opened up about how Rangoli is a 'real hero' as well her manager. She also revealed that she always wanted to make a film on Rangoli's life but the latter clearly stepped back from the project thinking of it as a 'flop' idea.

Rangoli's story is extremely sensitive. I want the society to applaud and acknowledge people who are real heroes. Rangoli is one such real hero, and I am very proud to be her sister. She has been my inspiration."
On making a film on Rangoli:
"We were shooting in Arunachal Pradesh and when this cover came out, I told Rangoli that I want to make a story on you and I want the rights of your life. I want to play you. She (Rangoli) said, 'Yes, it will be a very big flop film'."
On Rangoli's life:
