Rani Mukerji in ‘Mrs Chatterjee vs Norway‘ seems to be winning a lot of hearts as the bold courageous woman, willing to fight an entire nation for her children. The film has dented the narrative that content films are only for OTT with the super start that Mrs Chatterjee vs Norway has got over its first weekend. West Bengal as a market always has come through for Rani’s films and she has always been appreciative of the support she receives from her roots.
I’m a proud Bengali and I wear my identity as a badge of honour. People from West Bengal have always supported me and my films and I cannot be more grateful to them for always having my back. The love that Mrs. Chatterjee vs Norway is getting in West Bengal is overwhelming. It feels extra special because I’m playing a fierce Bengali woman in the movie too.

She also mentioned how she gave it her all to bring Sagarika’s daunting struggle of bringing her kids back.
