In a conversation with a magazine, Basu spoke about Kangana and was all praise for her."I never thought that Kangana will become so huge. She is a very fast learner. She wants to learn, so the hunger was always there from her very first film. She is a very ambitious girl and she knows where she is going. It's very difficult for an actress to carve a place in this industry. And especially for an outsider. She did it on her own. I have given her hardly two films, the rest was her own journey."
Kangana Ranaut will be seen Panga, which will release on January 24, 2020.
