Bollywood actress Rani Mukerji is all set to play the role of a teacher with Tourette syndrome in her upcoming film 'Hichki'. This will be her first movie post the birth of her daughter Adira. Talking about her role, Rani said, "Whenever I play a character in a film, I try to remove Rani Mukerji and emotionally connect with the part. If a person sitting in a cinema hall can forget who you really are and believes you are the character, that’s the real victory for an actor.” She further added, "I want people to forget that they are watching a Rani Mukerji film and get invested in the character.”
The actress further added that she has to also be careful with such roles as there is always a probability to look like a caricature. "It is with all my films. I take special care because it may become a caricature. There is always a thin line. I have been taking feedback on this film from day one. After every shot, I ensured that if I do the tick, it should appear natural. I would constantly check with Siddharth (director).It was important to look authentic,” she said. "Education is the right of every human being, irrespective of the gender. In India, a state like Kerala has the highest percentage of literacy, we should take that as an example. Once there is a change in the attitude, it can make a huge difference. Both men and women are working today and education should not be gender specific,” the actress concluded. Stay tuned for more updates.
