Rani Mukerji Viral Video: Mardaani 3 actress is back in the spotlight ahead of the film’s release. Several old interview clips of the actress are going viral on social media, leading to fresh debates and mixed reactions from netizens.
While one recent clip saw Rani being criticised for her views on relationships, another resurfaced video has grabbed attention for a different reason. In another video that has grabbed attention, the discussion is about how she landed a role in Shah Rukh Khan’s iconic film Kuch Kuch Hota Hai.
The viral video (shared widely on Reddit) features filmmaker Karan Johar revealing that it was Aditya Chopra who recommended Rani Mukerji for the 1998 blockbuster. The clip has once again sparked conversations around nepotism in Bollywood.
Rani Mukerji Viral Video Sparks Nepotism Debate
In the interview, Karan Johar shares that Rani Mukerji was not his original choice for Kuch Kuch Hota Hai. He explains how Aditya Chopra played an important role in shaping both his and Rani’s journeys.
Karan tells Rani Mukerji, “It was actually Adi who called me and recommended me to you. And do you remember that meeting? We were sitting just so that you could compose yourself. I just said there was a teaser at that time. Again it was Aditya Chopra’s idea. I think he’s such a part of my entire journey. Rani’s journey, consciously and subconsciously. He gave me the idea. That teaser where Rani is sitting with baby Anjali.”

The revelation did not go down well with a section of social media users. One user shared the video on Reddit and wrote, “What kjo is to nepos is what Aditya Chopra is to Rani Mukerji.”
This comment triggered a flood of reactions. Some users accused Aditya Chopra of favouring his now-wife Rani. Others argued that connections have always existed in the film industry and are nothing new.
Many users pointed out that while industry support may help actors get opportunities, talent is what keeps them going. A user said, “I don’t like Rani as a person, but she is a phenomenal actor.” Another user commented, Bollywood has always worked like this. Your connections bring the opportunities to you.”
A user called Rani a “Nepo Biwi.” A fan defended her and added, “Rani Talent >>>>>>>>>>> Alia Jhanvi.”
