After Bobby Deol criticised Kangana Ranaut's dancing ability in Shakalaka Boom Boom, the actress has taken it too seriously and is learning Kathak now…

It seems that Kangana Ranaut has taken her co-actor Bobby Deol's advice very seriously. It was reported that during the shooting of Shakalaka Boom Boom, Bobby expressed his feeling about Kangana's dance ability. A source says, "Bobby used to make fun of Kangana's dance steps, because she didn't know how to dance gracefully. But Kangana was not disappointed with his comment, but rather took it positively." Now we have information that the actress has joined dance class to groom herself as a dancer.

Says a source close to the actress, "No one is a trained actor in this industry. Everyone learns and gradually perfect their skills. Kangana is also trying her best to groom herself and give her best shot," says a close friend of Kangana. The actress has joined Jayantimala's dance academy in Mumbai and she is learning Kathak.

Need to groom
When we contacted Kangana, she admitted that she has been training in Kathak for couple of months now. She also admitted that she decided to join dance classes after Shakalaka Boom Boom. "My guruji Jayantimala is the daughter of famous Kathak exponent Sitara Devi. I thought that I need to groom myself in classical dance, as it's considered to the basic of any form of dance," says Kangana.

But keeping the Bollywood trend in mind, will she ever get opportunity to exhibit her talent as a classical dancer? "I am not learning dance for any particular film. I am doing it for myself. I also think that Kathak is one of the oldest and traditional form of dance from Benaras. I think it has a lot of grace, and if you learn Kathak then it equips you to handle all forms of dance. I am sure that I won't have any problem with western dance," she says.

Dedicated
Kangana is religiously practicing dance everyday. "I practice for more than a hour everyday. It needs a lot of riyaaz and I don't do anything half heartedly. I am a dedicated actor and I love doing things completely," she admits. It was also reported that Kangana has kept a tutor to brush her Hindi, so that she can dumb her own dialogues. "I want to give my best. I am too young and I am still learning," she says.
