Rani at IIFA
Here’s what Rani JI said to news reporters at IIFA ,
Rani Mukherjee
The IIFA Weekend is special to me because the organisers are all my friends. They do a great job. They find fantastic venues, create a wonderful atmosphere and look after all the guests very well.
I enjoy the award functions because audiences abroad rarely get a chance to attend such functions and their excitement creates a great vibe.
I am very happy to be nominated for Black because it is a very special film and an important milestone in my career. The role of a deaf, mute and blind girl was very challenging. I learnt a lot from my interaction with such people. I saw that despite the difficulties they have to face in life they are so positive and filled with optimism.
I learnt from them that nothing is impossible in life if you have the devotion to work hard for it. I was keen that my character should portray their fighting spirit and the humour with which they live their lives. So Black is not a dark film ? it is a positive film about achievement and love and it was the happiest moment of my life when audiences appreciated the effort of our entire team.
I am also happy to be nominated for Bunty Aur Babli because it is an entertaining film. In a strange sense it was difficult because we shot on location and we had to do our scenes in the midst of crowds at railway stations and on the roads.
My role was fun and I enjoyed working with director Shaad Ali, who is a good friend and has a great sense of humour. I have never played a character like this before; I laughed all the time during the shooting and that shows on screen. It was particularly good for me because the shoot began right after the intense six-month schedule of Black.
