Marriage might have ensured we don’t see as much of her as we would have liked to, but we are glad to report that our gal Rani Mukerji has lost none of that wit and down-to-earth wisdom. And she has just given us two instances of solid proof…
Airport styling…is a thing??
She was on air, expressing her views on ‘airport dressing’ hilariously. “I understand the pressure that actors go through today because they are constantly judged,” she started off admitting. “They are constantly judged even when they are going on a flight. Earlier, when you had to go to the airport, you prefer comfortable clothes especially after the security systems became so strict, people wanted to wear slippers and go but today you cannot imagine anyone wearing slippers and going on their flight because then people will say Look at her or him, they are wearing slippers. Everybody is getting judged. There are stylists who dress you up for the airport and I find it hilarious!” She then went on to tease Anushka Sharma, saying, “But does your stylist tell you ‘Anushka what are you carrying a bag for your airport entry?’ Is there an airport entry and exit look?” And there was still more… “We say that in Bombay finding a shelter is the biggest thing, our houses are so small. I want to ask people where will we keep so many shoes and bags!” Her funniest observation on airport style of course was – “I always imagine when we go for security check, those who wear belts and boots, how embarrassing it must be for them to remove them all and then wear it again in front of everybody!”
And now we cannot un-see that mental image, thank you Ms. Mukerji!
The Invisible – sorry, Visible Man!
More funniness in store, as she thanked her stars she wasn’t on social media and thus didn’t have to face the trolling. She revealed that in her case, it was because she was married to a very private person. And then she took a dig at those who harp on about Adi Chopra being reclusive to the point of being near invisible… “He is not Mr. India (unlike popular belief) and he is not only seen through the red glass, I can see him without them too!” she jibed mischievously. And for the record, while she has no issues sharing all her pictures 24x7, she cannot suddenly transform her husband into a “media savvy person,” nor share Adira’s pictures, “because her father also takes certain decisions for her.”
Rani M, you go, girl!
