You are a beautiful dreamer and thank you for weaving us all into that. And, what a wonderful reunion of friends to cheer you on with!!” He also added the hashtags–Sabyasachi, Mumbai, Colaba and India.

Fans saw Rani recently in Mrs Chatterjee vs Norway, in which she essays the role of a mother battling the state for her kids. The film is based on Sagarika Chakaraborty’s book The Journey of a Mother. Helmed by Ashima Chibber, Mrs Chatterjee vs Norway also stars Neena Gupta, Jim Sarbh and Anirban Bhattacharya among others. It hit the theatres on March 17.

Talking about the film, Rani said, as quoted by news agency ANI, “I have given it my all to bring Sagarika’s daunting struggle of getting her kids back on celluloid. I have seen how my mom, a Bengali mother, is fiercely protective of her children and I saw the same traits in Sagarika when I learnt about her life story.”

Rani also added, “So, two Bengali moms have actually inspired me to play this role and I’m so proud that it is resonating with people, especially mothers, across India. If I have made Bengalis living across the world proud by my portrayal of a courageous mother in Mrs Chatterjee vs Norway as well as through my career choices so far, that’s enough reward for me to keep acting and keep pushing the boundaries as an artiste.”
