Rani Mukerji praises audience’s taste for diverse cinema
Rani Mukerji discusses audience preferences in Bollywood, highlighting the success of women-centric films and her love for diverse storytelling.
Mrs Chatterjee Vs Norway, one of the best-acted films of Rani Mukerji has won many a heart. However, despite the power-packed performance of the much-acclaimed actress with emotional quotient, the movie crashed at the box office with a steep drop in its collection.
The Ashima Chibber-directorial venture is struggling to pull the audience to theatres. The film is based on a true story of a mother who is left to fight with an entire nation after her children are taken away from her. Based on true events, Mrs Chatterjee Vs Norway has ended Week 2 without even collecting Rs 20 crore.
After Mrs Chatterjee Vs Norway graced the screens on March 17 and surpassed the Rs 15-crore mark at the box office, it is still running in some single-screen theatres. On Friday, March 31, a new film, Bholaa, was released which stormed the theaters with good performance. Bhola seems to have overshadowed Rani’s film.
