Actor Rani Mukerji’s birth story is an interesting one, it is very filmy too! On Rani Mukherjee’s birthday, we felt like we should share how she was born and what happened after her birth. Hum Tum actress was born on 21st March 1978, once revealed in an interview that she got exchanged with another Punjabi family’s baby after birth. Rani’s mother Krishna Mukherjee realized that she has the wrong baby in her hands and she got up from her bed and started searching for her in the Hospital.
Rani Mukerji is the daughter of Ram Mukherjee, a film director-producer, and his wife, Krishna Mukherjee. Raja Mukherjee, her elder brother, is also a member of that family. Rani Mukerji is the cousin of Kajol and Ayan Mukerji. She also is the niece of actor Debashree Roy.
In a former interview with ABP News Rani had revealed “ When I was born, I got stuck in a Punjabi couple's room. So my mom went and brought me from there. It is an interesting story that I got exchanged in the hospital. My mother saw the other baby and said, 'This isn't my baby. She doesn't have brown eyes. My daughter has brown eyes. Go and search for my child.”
When Rani’s mother was searching for her she saw a Punjabi family who also had a daughter and Rani talks about how her family still jokes about it. She adds “You are a Punjabi. My mistake you ended up in our family.” Rani also has Punjabi reference to her family now as she is married to director Aditya Chopra which by the way she had once said in her interview that she would marry a Punjabi.
