The 'Tanu Weds Manu Returns' star said she was extremely lazy and hated taking baths.

"I was really lazy, and hated taking a shower. My parents were fed up. Honestly, nothing good ever happened in my life during that phase. I didn't make friends, no opportunities came my way," Kangana told reporters.

"Then I read a lot about elements, composition and energies. I got to know that energies are of three types, one of them being cleanliness which is the most superior type. It is the truth."

The 29-year-old actress was speaking at the launch of a short film on Swachh Bharat Abhiyan titled "Don't let her go".

"I studied Vedanta, followed Swami Vivekananda. I learnt how can I uplift myself, uplift energies and make changes. Like, it has various factors, external and internal cleanliness.

"I started with external cleanliness... It is a basic exercise. When I started adopting that, things starred changing in life. Now, I take shower, stay clean and make sure I don't litter. I haven't littered for the past 12 years."

The short film, directed by Pradeep Sarkar, also features Isha Koppikar and Omkar Kapoor with voice over from megastar Amitabh Bachchan.
