Women police officers inspire me every day: Rani Mukerji
Reflecting on the inspiration she draws from real-life female police officers, Rani Mukerji shares, ‘Whenever I meet women police officers and hear about their lives and experiences firsthand, I feel incredibly inspired. As an artist I feel that no matter how much I do, it can never match what they do in real life. The way they fearlessly step into the field, investigate and solve the most dangerous and terrifying cases and go out in the middle of the night to rescue girls, it takes immense courage and commitment. When I portray a female cop on screen, I carry that inspiration with me. Their lives motivate me so much that I always feel my effort is still not enough. That is why I give my role complete physical, mental, and emotional preparation.’
She further added, ‘Whether I’m performing an action sequence, an emotional moment or a particularly challenging scene, I always keep these women officers in my mind. Their courage becomes my biggest motivation while playing the character.’
