Kangana Ranaut Says 'Gentlemanly Imran is Welcome Relief'

Actress Kangana Ranaut, who almost always speaks her mind, has in one fell swoop commented on celebrity bad behaviour and paid a compliment to her Katti Batti co-star Imran Khan, all at once. (Also read - First Look: Kangana Ranaut in Katti Batti)

Kangana compared 'gentlemanly' Imran to other unnamed actors who she said bad-mouth actresses and throw on-set tantrums. In a recent interview to The Times of India , Kangana said, "In many ways, he is like me - naive, straightforward and sometimes a little unsure during a scene. After working with actors who scream on the sets, can't mind their language and run down other actresses in front of me, making me wonder if they do the same behind my back, gentlemanly Imran is a welcome relief."

Kangana, who starred in the acclaimed Queen last year, has made no secret of her admiration for Imran's uncle Aamir Khan. Like the PK actor, she gives award shows a wide berth, and wasn't at the recent Filmfare Awards to collect her Best Actress prize. Kangana plays the bohemian Payal in Katti Batti, opposite Imran's middle-class Maddy. Katti Batti, directed by Nikhil Advani, will release on September 18. Watch:
