Rani Mukerji
Indian actress who works in Bollywood movies.
I have worked with Rani in three films. She wasn’t taken seriously, initially. But now her talent is there for all to see. She is the only actress who has incredible comic timing. Even though she sported ugly glasses and had an awkward gait in Black, her performance was simply amazing. She doesn’t stoop to manipulation or backbiting. Now I can confidently say, she is here to stay.
I want to do each and every Rani Mukherji film. Let's rewind 15 years and I want to do that film. I love her, and I have told her that a thousand times.
Rani is a great co-star, love working with her I think our chemistry is special, and Hum Tum was a great film and now with Kunal Kohli now again we have just done another movie just now so I am really looking forward to that she is a great actor.
I have been into Odissi for over a decade now. I started around the time I was in standard X. I started dancing with Meenakshi Seshadri. My guru Pandit Ravindra Attibuthi has also taught Meenakshi and Hema Malini.
[Speaking about Rani on Big Boss Season 4] She is one of the best actresses we have in the country... And an amazing dancer... Look at that smile! Love you, Rani.
She is one of my favourite costars. I am not saying it for the heck of it, she really is a very nice person.
[on the Vivek and Salman row] This really doesn't have much to do with me so I can hardly comment on it. But from my side I can say that Salman was and always will be a sweet co star and friend of mine and I don't believe in the accusations made against him. However, you have to hand it to him for handling the situation so well. Vivek and I were co stars in Saathiya and I guess our chemistry worked but personally I'm not close to him. He's my brothers friend from school, not mine.
I love working with Rani. She's one of my favourite co-stars. She understands me the most as an actor
Shahrukh is someone I can aways count on. Same is the case for both Karan and Salman. And Aamir, who I have immense respect for. To be honest, I'm still a bit in awe of him!
Rani is a fantastic actor. Aditya Chopra, the producer, always says that we work well together because she tends to sort of ground me and I make her a little more Westernised. I think we do share an interesting chemistry on screen. I have a lot of respect for her. Out of most people that I have met in the industry she is very real, very down to earth and very family-oriented and a strong valued girl.
Guests I would want over for lunch… Shahrukh, because he’s a very sweet guest and will appreciate your efforts even if the food doesn’t taste great. And Rani because we really get along well. I’m sure she will cook half the lunch and it will taste fantastic!
Sanjay Leela Bhansali brings out the best in me, both personally and professionally. I think we have a Karmic connection and I hope he'll agree!
I don't let gossip about my alleged affairs with Abhishek (Bachchan) or Govinda bother me anymore. People have even married me off to Karan Johar! The rumours about Govinda did make me furious. I felt sorry for Sunitaji. As far as Abhishek goes, I’m not dating him. I have no time for dates.
And if I was found to be good for two awards, it doesn't mean I should be given just one just to make the awards look more democratic.
I love Titanic because the love in the movie was pure, real, passionate and unconditional... the way the love story culminated in catastrophe was phenomenal. I love DDLJ and Kuch Kuch Hota Hai for being so over the top and yet so believable for us youngsters... I love Black for being such a sublime love story between and a teacher and his student. It was a love much beyond the ordinary.
Rani is one of my closest friends, we can talk about anything.
When Karan wanted my voice to be dubbed for Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, I really thought that it was a bad idea, but slowly I worked to improve my diction, and now I'm quite comfortable with it.
Well, Rani Mukerji is one of my best friends. Rani's and my chemistry work good together.
She is I think the best actress I have worked with, and there's something about her aura that really matches mine and makes us look great together onscreen. Working with such a great co-actor pushes you to act even better because you want to do better then them.
