Bollywood actress Rani Mukerji has one of the most iconic characters of Bollywood to her credit, thanks to Karan Johar's debut directorial 'Kuch Kuch Hota Hai'.
Rani was just 17 when she starred in 'Kuch Kuch Hota Hai' alongside Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol.
While the film has achieved a cult status today and it also created a milestone for fashion in Hindi movies, the feelings weren't the same when the actors were actually shooting for it.
'Was petrified of wearing short dress': Rani Mukerji
On Sunday night, Kajol and Rani caught up for an epic reunion at an awards event in the city.
During the event, Kajol was seen wondering how did Rani dance wearing a tight short dress in the song 'Koi Mil Gaya' from 'Kuch Kuch Hota Hai'.
To that, Rani recalled how horrified she was when she first wore the outfit. "I was only 17 and until then, I hadn't worn such a short skirt ever in my life. When Karan and Manish (Malhotra) presented the outfit to me it was a gown, which kept getting shorter and shorter till I reached the set. When the outfit was taken to the cameramen, he looked at it and said, 'Oh is this for baby Sana' and they were like, ‘No it is actually for Rani’ so he got a fright!" Rani revealed, leaving the audience in splits.
She went on to say that she was petrified as she had to dance on a platform with boys and girls standing below. "I was petrified walking on top of that platform because all the boys and girls were below, looking up, so that was quite a nightmare for me. When I saw myself on screen, I was also shocked," she shared.
Rani Mukerji's latest film
Meanwhile, on the work front, Rani recently starred in the film 'Mrs Chatterjee Vs Norway', and she was lauded for her performance in it.
Rani played the role of a mother to two kids and the film was based on the real story of a mom's fight with the whole of Norway in order to be with her kids.
Though the film performed fairly well at the box office, Rani earned immense praise for her impactful and convincing role of a devastated-yet-courageous mother.
