Kangana Ranaut opened up about attending the same driving school as Deepika Padukone.
Kangana Ranaut revealed she tried her hand at driving but several car bumps later, she gave up.
Kangana Ranaut revealed she and Deepika Padukone attended the same driving school. However, the Chennai Express graduated from the school before Kangana. The Queen actress revealed that while she was trying to learn how to drive, she bumped into autos several times. She said that after several attempts, she decided to forgo the urge to learn driving. But things changed in recent years and she decided to give it another shot.
“I tried so hard to learn driving. Both the times when it came to the driving license, I slammed my car! Me and Deepika [Padukone] came around the same time, she in 2007 and me in 2006. So we were at the driving school at the same time in Bandra. It was the same driving school. I said I want to drive, so I learnt it there… So they told me you will get your license today. Then I slammed my car on a rickshaw. I pulled the accelerator instead of the brakes,” Kangana said, while speaking with Mashable India.
“After 5-6 years I saw at an event that Deepika was driving her own SUV! I said, ‘Woh toh drive kar rahi hai, woh toh mere saath seekh rahi thi! Phir maine kaha, ‘Ab toh seekh ke hi rahungi (She learnt how to drive, and we were at the same placeThen I said I will learn driving now)!’ I told Rangoli that all my peers were driving and I again learnt. But again on the training day, I slammed my car on a police jeep! My driver sat beside me and said you slammed your BMW! When the police came I said your jeep is okay my car got all the marks! I left driving that time,” she recalled.
On the work front, Kangana will be seen in Emergency. The film is slated to release on September 6. The actress plays the role of Indira Gandhi. She is not only starring in it but also directing the film.
