Rani Mukerji on her BIG win
This is Rani Mukerji’s first National Award nearly 30 years after entering the film industry. The actress is overwhelmed with this honour and has finally reacted to the news. She shared a note on her big win and said that she is overwhelmed to have won the National Award for her performance in Mrs. Chatterjee vs Norway. She added that this is the first-ever National Award in her 30-year career and she has been fortunate to have some incredible films in her body of work and have received so much love for them. This is a big story in entertainment news.
She thanked the National Award jury for honoring her work. The actress further said, “I share this moment with the entire team of the film–my producers Nikkhil Advani, Monisha, and Madhu, my director Ashima Chibber, and everyone who worked on this truly special project that celebrated the resilience of motherhood. I dedicate my National Award to all the incredible mothers of this world. There is nothing like a mother’s love and her ferocity to protect her own. The story of this Indian immigrant mother, who went all out for her child and took on a nation, shook me deeply… a mother’s love for her child is unconditional. I realised this when I had my own. So, this win, this film, feels deeply emotional and personal. A mother can move mountains for her children and also make the world a better place. This film tried to show this.”
Mrs. Chatterjee Vs Norway is based on a true story of Sagarika Chakraborty. Rani Mukerji played the role of Debika in the film and made everyone cry with her heart-touching performance.
