Rani Mukerji on Mardaani 3, Bollywood, Motherhood & A Talk With Women In Uniform | Podcast

Описание: In this powerful conversation with Humans of Bombay, Rani Mukerji opens up about what it truly means to carry a film like Mardaani, and why stories rooted in crime, women’s safety, and uncomfortable realities are more important today than ever. She speaks about the responsibility of cinema, the need for awareness, and how films can start conversations that society often avoids.

Rani reflects on her journey in Bollywood, working with some of the biggest superstars in the country, and what she has learned from watching them sustain their careers for decades. From discipline and craft to humility and consistency, she shares what it really takes to not just become a star, but to remain one.

She also talks about playing strong women on screen, breaking gender labels, and why films should simply be called “good” or “bad” — not male-led or female-led. For her, strength is something she has always seen in real life: in mothers, in working women, and in those who quietly carry the weight of families and responsibilities every single day.

The conversation goes beyond cinema into Rani’s personal life — motherhood, gratitude, staying away from social media, growing up in Mumbai, and finding happiness in the smallest everyday moments. From Joohu beach memories to home-cooked food, she shares the off-camera side that the world rarely sees.

This episode is a deep, honest look at fame, fearlessness, womanhood, and the power of storytelling — straight from one of Indian cinema’s most respected voices.

Watch till the end for Rani Mukerji’s most honest reflections on cinema and life.
