Rani Mukerji is a famous superstar, who changed the notion that 'actresses should have a certain height' to become big in Bollywood. She won hearts with her first film, Raja Ki Aayegi Baraat. However, initially, she was criticised for her voice, and many advised her to dub it. Later on, she got famous for her husky soft voice that can be recognised at any given moment.

"18th October 1996, when Raja Ki Aayegi Baraat released, my family and I were going through a lot then. It also takes me back to the fact that my father was having a very important heart surgery at that time and I remember him going to the theatre to watch my first film in Gaiety Galaxy."
