Rani shared, “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. In 2020, I got pregnant with my second baby at the end of 2020 and I unfortunately lost my baby five months into my pregnancy.”

The actress further shared that she got a call from producer Nikhil Advani 10 days after her miscarriage. Rani revealed, “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.”

Rani delivered a phemonemal performance in Ashima Chibber directorial Mrs Chatterjee Vs Norway. The film focused on how an immigrant Indian mother fights the Norwegian foster care system and legal machinery to win back the custody of her children. Rani received a lot of praise for her performance in Mrs Chatterjee vs Norway.
