Dussehra 2023: Kangana Ranaut performs Ravan Dahan at Lav Kush Mela; fails to shoot arrow
Kangana Ranaut made history by being the first woman in 50 years to perform Raavan Dahan at Lav Kush Mela
For the occasion, Kangana opted for a red traditional saree
Arjun Singh, the esteemed President of the Lav Kush Ramleela Committee of Delhi, proudly heralded this groundbreaking moment.
The decision to entrust Kangana Ranaut with this iconic role was made by the committee as a nod to the recently passed Women's Reservation Bill in the Parliament.
Kangana Ranaut's groundbreaking performance will undoubtedly be etched in the Lav Kush Ramleela's history as a turning point
Finally, it came time for Kangana to shoot the arrow at Ravan
The actress tried shooting the arrow but unfortunately things did not go as planned
The actress was a sport about it and chanted 'Jai Shree Ram' while another member from the committee helped her take the shot
The arrow lit up the effigy and the ritual was complete
The committee and Kangana did Ganpati darshan post the lighting of the effigy
