B-Town Actress revealed in an interview, the hilarious response she got from her close friend and co-star of many films, Aamir Khan, after watching her film.
Actress took a break for four years
This proves when actress took a break for four years to take care of daughter Adira Chopra After starring in the hard-hitting film, Mardaani (2014).
In 2018, Rani was back with a bang as she starred in Hichki, playing a teacher suffering from Tourette Syndrome.
Rani Mukerji starred in Hichki, which was critically acclaimed and a box-office success.
Asked about the success of the small-budget movie
When asked about the success of the small-budget movie, Rani replied to Media House,
“I don’t categorise films on the basis of their budget.
At the end of the day, it is a validation of my work being accepted by viewers.
So, it’s not really about getting success on a higher or lower scale.
The audience’s appreciation is of utmost importance.
When a film does well, it makes you happy.
Likewise, when it flops, irrespective of its budget, you feel equally sad.”
Rani Mukerji on reaction of the film
On reactions from the industry after watching Hichki, the actress revealed,
“I remember Karan’s (Johar) words. He told me, ‘You have performed like a veteran actor.’ Javed (Akhtar) uncle called me after the screening and said he loved my performance in Hichki more than Black. Aamir (Khan) joked that I make for a good-looking buddhi because of the last scene where I’m an old woman. This is the kind of attention an actor craves for.”
On Hichki’s place in Rani’s esteemed filmography
Rani shared with Media House, “It stands at a very important place. Hichki was my comeback film which I did right after giving birth to my baby Adira. So there were a lot of questions I had about whether I would be able to deliver a hit, whether the audiences would like to see me on screen four years after Mardaani. Hichki has dispelled all those questions.”
