Rani Mukerji Opens Up About Her Miscarriage

According to The Business Today, Rani Mukerjishared a deeply emotional account of a devastating incident in 2020 amidst the pandemic. She disclosed that she was anticipating the arrival of her second child, but tragically experienced the heart-wrenching experience of a miscarriage, resulting in the loss of her baby in the fifth month of her pregnancy.

As per Business Today, Rani said, “Maybe this is the first time I am making this revelation because in today’s world every aspect of your life is discussed publicly, and becomes an agenda for talking about your film to get more eyeballs. Obviously, I didn’t speak about this when I was promoting the film because it would have come across as me trying to speak about a personal experience that would propel the film, so, it was around the year when Covid-19 struck. It was 2020. I got pregnant with my second baby at the end of 2020 and I unfortunately lost my baby five months into my pregnancy."

Recounting the moment, she mentioned, “After I lost my baby, Nikhil (Advani) would have called me probably like 10 days later. He told me about the story and I kind of immediately, not that I had to have the loss of a child to feel the emotion but sometimes there is a film in the right time of what you are going through personally to be able for you to connect with it instantly. When I heard the story, I was in disbelief. I never thought in a country like Norway an Indian family would have had to go through,” she said.
