Ranked: 5 Best Performances Of Kangana Ranaut

It is safe to say that we are at a point where praising Kangana Ranaut is kind of useless, isn't it? It is clear to everybody how talented she is, how great her roles have been, how many National Awards she has been awarded (three National Awards, in case you didn't know; only Amitabh Bachchan and Shabana Azmi have won more.) 

And now, as her latest movie Rangoon hits theaters nationwide, we think it is time to determine what her best cinematic performances are--and whether her role as a popular stunt heroine makes its way on that list.

Let's find out:

#5 Rangoon

Her multi-layered and dynamic role in this Vishal Bhardwaj period dramas is definitely a saving grace of the film. What sets this performance apart from her rest that she not only exercised her acting charisma but also her charm.

#4 Gangster

When an actor can a play such a complicated character in your first feature film, it indeed is something special. And the actress did just that with the nuances of a performer strongly in control of his talent.

#3 Fashion

A tour-de-force performance by the actress won her a National Award and it's hard to argue why. A confident portrayal of a downfall of a supermodel easily ranks among the best acting works of recent times.

#2 Queen

Sometimes an actor performs a role so convincingly that it seems that the role was a especially written with the said actor in mind. Kangana Ranaut's Rani is one such character.

#1 Tanu Weds Manu Returns

One of the greatest roles ever written for a female actor in Bollywood required a level of performance that only a few could give. Kangana Ranaut responded to that challenge with utmost aplomb and her dual role of Tanu/ Datto will be remembered for a long, long time.
