It is given that cinema impacts society deeply and it has definitely tried to contribute towards projecting girls positively on screen. One person who has brought to life several powerful girls and women on screen is Rani Mukerji and we spoke to the iconic actress about what propelled her to pick such generation-defining roles. Rani Mukerji said, “Cinema has the power to impact societal change and actors do have the power to talk to people and seed the thought of positive change through their choice of films. I have been fortunate as an artiste to get projects that had strong female protagonists and, to be honest, I have also consciously tried to seek out such projects.” Also Read – Rani Mukerji: Black is one of my most special films because I really understood the value of human life

She concluded, “By projecting girls well, cinema has definitely tried to contribute towards showing how girls can be so much more than what society wanted them to be. I know there is still a lot of work to be done and films can contribute much, much more in triggering the right thoughts, the right conversations about equality, parity, independence of women. I have faith in my industry that we will all try to do our best in this regard.”

And we’re proud of you, Rani Mukerji, for the kind of work you do.
