‘This is my 27th year in the industry and it is heartening to see to that my work being acknowledged and awarded,’ Rani had said at the Zee Cine awards. And to think there was a time when she felt she didn’t have the acting talent.
“I don’t think I have a sweet voice to begin with. At that point, when I came into the industry, I don’t think actresses had this kind of voice,” she once said in an interview to Rediff.com.
“I wasn’t too tall. I’m quite short. Physically, I don’t think I had the makings of the screen goddesses that were up there like Sridevi, Rekhaji, Parveen Babi, Zeenat Aman…
“I was not fair complexioned. I came with my unique colour, which is what 99 percent of Indians are.”
And yet, she went on to become one of Bollywood’s best talents.
