Today marks our lovely Rani Mukerji's birthday. For many years, fans have adored the actress who starred in films such as Kuch Kuch Hota, Mardaani, Mrs. Chatterjee vs Norway, and others. We're going back in time to when she bravely talked about her stage anxiety and stammering.
Rani Mukerji attended the 54th International Film Festival of India in Goa on November 26, 2023. She disclosed some unknown details about her life during an open discussion over there. The actress described what happened when she was asked to make a movie announcement.?
She said, "So, it wasn't a platform like this, but it was a mahurat being performed because there used to be a lot of mahurats performed and during mahurats, producers used to invite people from the film industry to announce the film. Nowadays there is social media to announce the film but in those days mahurats used to be very important to announce a film. I remember wearing this pink wedding attire with full dupatta, and I was 16 years old. It was meant to be this long dialogue, which I really mugged up. I took my talents as a good history student, and I just mugged up the dialogue, and I was really nervous."
She went on to add as per Bollywoodshaadis, "I was very nervous because at that time I was not there to be an actor, but rather a good daughter who was doing what her mother said, and as my mother said, you just have to give it a try and do this, and I just thought that I had to do it to the best of my ability. There were so many people in the audience, seniors, family members, and friends. It was the first time I was exposed to an audience that I didn't totally understand and I had to say these lines I had never done stage plays in school I used to do classical dancing so I was used to stage performance but not like dialogue delivery."
She also went on to add, "I also had a tiny stammering problem. So I was nervous about what was going to happen, and as soon as the director said lights, camera, action, I began delivering my lines and it came so naturally to me that I was shocked that I really did it."
