For the occasion, Kangana wore a white handloom sari consistent with her known preference for traditional Indian fabrics. The garment appeared to be made of tussar or ghicha silk with a jamdani-inspired weave, noted for its natural texture and elegant drape.

Kangana, who represents the Mandi constituency in the Lok Sabha after winning the 2024 general elections, has previously expressed admiration for Prime Minister Modi, including at public events and on social media.

Born on March 23, 1986, in Bhambla, Himachal Pradesh, Kangana had a successful career in Hindi cinema before entering politics. Over two decades, she established herself with multiple national awards and commercially successful films before transitioning to public office. Her last film, Emergency (2023), was a historical drama in which she portrayed Indira Gandhi, exploring the controversial period of India’s Emergency rule from 1975 to 1977. The film did not do well at the box office.

Kangana's upcoming project

Kangana Ranaut will star in the upcoming film Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata (also spelt Bharat Bhagya Vidhata), directed by Manoj Tapadia. Inspired by real events, the drama focuses on the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks and the bravery of staff at Cama and Albless Hospital, with Kangana portraying a nurse. The film is slated for a 2026 theatrical release.
