Actor Kangana Ranaut, who is currently basking in praises for her acting in 'Thalaivii', on Sunday, met Air Force officers while shooting for the upcoming film 'Tejas'. Taking to her Instagram handle, the actor shared pictures from the hangar where the team was shooting and met Air Force officers who landed there.
