Kangana Ranaut has done it again.

For the fourth time in her career, the provocative Bollywood actress will be bestowed a Indian National Award. Previously, she won the best actress award in 2015 and 2016; in 2010 she won best supporting actress.

The actress, who was last seen in ‘Thalaivii’, took to her social media accounts to make the announcement about her newest best actress award.

As always, she seems to be her own biggest cheerleader as she reminded her fans that she also co-directed the period epic ‘Manikarnika - The Queen Of Jhansi’. The actress also gave a big shout out to her team.

“Immense gratitude for the teams of these films,” wrote Ranaut.
