Kangana Ranaut on cultivating your “true nature”
The actor went on to argue that nurturing is not something women have to learn, calling it their “nature” and a divinely given responsibility. Kangana writes, “This is not something we need to learn. God has given us the responsibility of nurturing humanity. It is our true nature and that is why women are called Devi, Shakti, Annapurna, Mata and many other similar forms. But other than that, loving, feeding, dancing and nurturing is a joy”.“
