Rani Mukerji on the importance of audience's feedback
In a recent interview with India Today.in, Rani Mukerji talked extensively about her views on learning better with every project. She also called her audience the “most honest critic” because she believes they don’t come with a preconceived notion of not liking a film. The actress stated that for her, the most gratifying thing is when somebody tells her that they hope to win all the awards.
“The most rewarding thing is when somebody comes and tells me that they wish I win all the awards. That's genuine, and that, in itself, is an award. I'd rather have people to say that rather than them saying that I don't deserve an award, but I won it. For me, that is more rewarding,” she said.
In addition to this, Mrs. Chatterjee vs Norway actress, further explained that she is driven by the audience’s feedback. The actress admits that a film’s debacle at the box office is what gives her the ‘learning experience.’
She opined, “It's important to know how the audience perceives my films and what do they think about, and it happens even when my film doesn't work. When a film doesn't work, it means there's something that they haven't connected to. It's a learning experience with each film. They are spending their hard-earned money, and they have all the right to tell you whether they loved you or hated you. It's the most honest critique to have because they have no agenda. They won't come with an agenda to hate a film.”

During the conversation, the No One Killed Jessica actress further expressed her opinion by stating that she wants her fans to identify as the character and not as Rani Mukerji.
