This straight-shooting woman is on a roll. She ruffles feathers like no one else in the Indian film fraternity. After embarrassing Karan Johar on his own talk-show by reminding him that he used to make fun of her when she hadn’t made it big as an actress, Kangana Ranaut has now pointed her guns towards director Vishal Bhardwaj for cutting her scenes from his latest film Rangoon, in which she plays the female lead. She said they were her favourite sequences in the story and editing them out has made her sad. Tell you what Kangana R: some of those who have seen the film are saddened by the scenes that have not been chopped off. Can’t have it all, can you!
