Speaking to Pinkvilla, Kangana said, "To be honest, I never thought I'd come this far. I never had these as my primary ambitions. I didn't have material ambitions. But it started off when I saw that women are hugely judged for not going after material ambitions. Men are running this race. The women feel vulnerable at that point. Being a woman, I don't think about money. But am I looked like that from an outer perspective? That I'm a gold digger from a small town?"
She continued, "This is something that has been so obnoxiously told to me which changed the course of my life forever. Then, it became about material things. Then, I thought that maybe, I will have a fair chance in the society if I have that. So now, I have another goal, to be one of the richest people in India by the age of 50."
Kangana will next be seen in Thalaivi, which is a biopic on Tamil Nadu's former Chief Minister, J. Jayalalitha. The film will release in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu.
