<p>Apart from Rani returning to play the feisty cop, no further details about the movie have been revealed.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The first movie of the franchise, <em>Mardaani</em>, was released on August 22, 2014. Directed by the late Pradeep Sarkar, the movie was a huge hit. Following the success of the first movie, Mardaani 2 came out in 2019. Directed by Gopi Puthran, the film performed well at the box office and earned around Rs 67.12 crore.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Celebrating the 10th anniversary of the movie, Rani called the role of Shivani Shivani Roy, her favourite on-screen character.&nbsp;</p>

<p>“Shivani Shivaji Roy is my favorite on-screen character. She is a defiant, fierce force of nature who will stand up for what is right no matter what. She is someone who subverts gender norms in cinema and shows how a woman can also lead from the front in a male-dominated field,” she said.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Talking about reprising the role of the cop in the third movie, she says, “I’m looking forward to bringing back Shivani Shivaji Roy on the big screen soon. It’s been a while since I have donned the cop uniform and played tribute to the women police force of our country.”</p>

<p>Rani adds, “Each (woman cop) one of them relentlessly works hard to keep our families safe, and I have always loved to salute these fearless women. Shivani will be back, and I hope you will give as much love to her as you have always showered for 10 years now!”</p>

Mardaani 3 in the works! Rani Mukerji set to return as cop Shivani Shivaji Roy

<p>Actress Rani Mukerji is one of the Bollywood stars who has kept her personal life away from the media glare. However, recently Rani opened up about the miscarriage that she suffered in 2020. Mukerji shared the unfortunate news at the Indian Film Festival of Melbourne. Speaking at the film festival, the <em>Mrs Chatterjee vs Norway</em> actress shared that during the COVID-19 pandemic, she was expecting her second child but suffered a miscarriage when she was five months pregnant.</p>

<p>Talking about the heart-wrenching loss for the first time, Rani said she hadn't talked about the loss earlier as she thought everyone would see it as a promotional strategy for her film <em>Mrs Chatterjee vs Norway,&nbsp;</em>which told the true story of an Indian mother and her fight against the Norwegian government for the custody of her children.</p>

<p>She added, ''So, it was around the year when&nbsp;COVID-19&nbsp;struck. It was 2020. I got pregnant with my second baby at the end of 2020 and I unfortunately lost my baby five months into my pregnancy.''</p>

<h2><strong>Here's why Rani&nbsp;said yes to<em> Mrs Chatterjee vs Norway</em></strong></h2>

<p>The actress went on to share that just after 10 days she lost her baby, producer Nikkhil Advani offered her a role in <em>Mrs Chatterjee vs Norway</em>.</p>

<p>She shared, "After I lost my baby, Nikkhil (Advani) would have called me probably like 10 days later. He told me about the story and I kind of immediately… not that I had to have the loss of a child to feel the emotion but sometimes there is a film in the right time of what you are going through personally to be able for you to connect with it instantly."</p>

Rani Mukerji reveals she suffered a miscarriage in 2020, here's why she kept it hidden

<p>Rani Mukherji has a birthday treat for all her fans. The actor who turns 42 today, is set to play the lead in&nbsp;Zee Studios and Emmay Entertainment's 'Mrs Chatterjee vs Norway'<br />
<br />
<br />
Touted as an untold story about a journey of a mother's battle against an entire country, the movie will be directed by Ashima Chibber, known for 'Mere Dad Ki Maruti'. Mukerji said the announcement has made her birthday special. The actor said, "Mrs Chatterjee vs Norway" is one of the most "significant films" of her career spanning 25 years. She made her debut with the 1996 drama "Raja Ki Aayegi Baraat".<br />
<br />
"I started my career with 'Raja Ki Aayegi Baraat', which was a woman-centric film, and coincidentally in my 25th year, I'm announcing a film that is also centered around a woman's resolve to fight against all odds and take on a country. 'Mrs. Chatterjee vs Norway' is a story of true human resilience and it is a film that is dedicated to all the mothers out there. It is truly one of the most amazing scripts that I have read in a long time and I immediately decided to do this special film," Mukerji said in a statement.<br />
<br />
The actor was last seen on the big screen in the 2019 action-drama 'Mardaani 2'&nbsp;and is gearing up for the release of 'Bunty Aur Babli 2'&nbsp;next month, where she will be seen doing&nbsp;a cameo alongside Saif Ali Khan.&nbsp;<br />

'Mrs. Chatterjee vs Norway' is a story of true human resilience and it is a film that is dedicated to all the mothers out there.

Bunty Aur Babli 2: Rani Mukerji, Saif Ali Khan to shoot film's climax in Abu Dhabi?

<p>Rani Mukherji today said she became an actor by default as it was a decision that was taken by her mother.<br />
<br />
&quot;I did not decide (to become actor), my mum decided for me. When we were young it was a different generation, unlike what happens today. I was an obedient child.<br />
<br />
&quot;So I did whatever my mum said, she said become an actor, so I became an actor. She realised my thing (of actor) before me. I became an actor by default. I thank my mum today as I don&#39;t think I would be anything else than an actor,&quot; Rani said at a promotional event of her upcoming film <em>Hichki.</em><br />
<br />
Rani also advocated that girls these days should learn self-defense techniques and said she would want her daughter Adira to take up both boxing and dancing.<br />
<br />
&quot;I believe today all girls should learn martial arts, self-defence and then learn dance after that. So I would like my daughter to learn both,&quot; she added.<br />

Rani Mukherji became an actor by 'default'

<p>Rani Mukerji has always had a strong connect with the audiences and the actor believes people find her relatable because she never brings her real- life persona on screen.</p>

<p>In her new film <em>Hichki</em>, which is her first after the birth of her daughter Adira, Rani plays the role of a woman who does not let her speech disability come in the way of achieving her dream of becoming a teacher.<br />
<br />
&quot;Whenever I play a character in a film, I try to remove Rani Mukerji and emotionally connect with the part. If a person sitting in a cinema hall can forget who you really are and believes you are the character, that&#39;s the real victory for an actor,&quot; Rani told PTI in an interview.<br />
<br />
&quot;I want people to forget that they are watching a Rani Mukerji film and get invested in the character,&quot; she added.<br />
<br />
The actor said she has always been attracted to complex roles and this was one of the main reasons to accept <em>Hichki</em>.<br />
<br />
In the film, Rani plays a woman with Tourette syndrome, a condition that forces an individual to make involuntary repetitive movements or sounds.<br />
<br />
&quot;For somebody to take their weakness and turn it into strength... It holds a positive message. I truly believe that all of us have a weakness that we know but we try to camouflage it as we have to put up a hard exterior in front of the world. If one can make their weakness their strength, the world can become a good place.&quot;<br />
<br />
Rani is not new to playing challenging roles. She played a deaf and blind woman in Sanjay Leela Bhansali&#39;s <em>Black</em>.<br />
<br />
The actor said one has to be careful with such roles as there is always a probability to look like a caricature.</p>

<p>&quot;It is with all my films. I take special care because it may become a caricature. There is always a thin line. I have been taking feedback on this film from day one. After every shot, I ensured that if I do the tick, it should appear natural. I would constantly check with Siddharth (director). It was important to look authentic.&quot;<br />
<br />
The movie, produced by Yash Raj Films, also highlights the topic of literacy and Rani said the right to education cannot be gender specific.<br />
<br />
&quot;Education is the right of every human being, irrespective of the gender. In India, a state like Kerala has the highest percentage of literacy, we should take that as an example. Once there is a change in the attitude, it can make a huge difference. Both men and women are working today and education should not be gender specific.&quot;<br />
<br />
Directed by Siddharth P Malhotra and produced by Maneesh Sharma, <em>Hichki</em>&nbsp;will release across India on February 23, next year.&nbsp;</p>
