Rani Mukerji On Rumors About Competition With Kajol
During an interview with ANI, Rani Mukerji was asked about her competition with her sister Kajol, since both emerged as immensely successful actresses at the same time. In response, Rani said, “There was no competition. When we do films, we compete with ourselves. Today, if you watch a film of mine, you will definitely compare it with my last film. You will never compare me to a film that somebody has done.”
She further added, “Competition is always with your own craft. You always want to do better. You don’t want the audience to say, ‘She’s not doing a good job today. She was doing better in her earlier films.’ I would have died if I had to hear such things about me. I have to keep improving my craft with each decade.”
Rani Mukerji Says There Never Existed A Rivalry Between Actors
Speaking further about showbiz rivalry, Rani shared, “I am not competing with somebody else because other people’s journey will be different from mine. The choice of films that another actor does is entirely about what another actor is doing. What I choose to do with my career is completely different. So, there was never competition between the actors.”
“When we do an ensemble cast film, you always focus on giving your best in that particular scene. The director would want to see each actor delivering a better performance in each scene. The audience compares actors on the basis of their performances,” the actress added.
