Rani Mukerji Marks 30 Years in Films, Says She Never Had a Master Plan
MUMBAI, India — As she completes 30 years in Hindi cinema, Rani Mukerji says she entered films without a master plan and still feels like the nervous young girl facing the camera for the first time.
Marking the milestone, the actress shared a heartfelt note recalling how cinema found her by chance, driven more by curiosity and love for storytelling than ambition. “I didn’t come into films with a master plan,” she said, adding that the nervousness and hunger to do better have never left her.
Rani revisited key moments from her journey, from her 1997 debut “Raja Ki Aayegi Baaraat,” which taught her that cinema is about responsibility, to turning points like “Saathiya,” “Hum Tum,” and the career-defining “Black,” which she described as one of the most emotionally intense experiences of her life.
She said characters like Shivani Shivaji Roy from the “Mardaani” franchise represent quiet strength and her belief in telling uncomfortable but hopeful stories.
Reflecting on marriage and motherhood, Rani said both sharpened her focus and made her more selective about her work. Films like “Hichki” and “Mrs. Chatterjee vs Norway,” which earned her a National Award, deepened her understanding of emotional truth, she added.
Calling it special to celebrate her 30th year with the release of “Mardaani 3,” Rani said longevity in cinema is not about staying relevant, but about staying honest — and that she still feels like a newcomer ready to take on new challenges. (Source: IANS)
