Bollywood actress Rani Mukerji will soon be seen making a
comeback with her forthcoming movie Hichki. The actor, who is wedded to Aditya
Chopra, is not on social media and doesn't quite misses it.
In a chat to a channel, Rani spoke in a length about a
number of things including the social media trends which has become so flourishing
nowadays.
She recalled about the time when actors were considered unreachable
and the love letters she used to receive from admirers and how time has evolved
since then.
"I think at that time, the actors, the stars were still
up in the galaxy. People thought they were inaccessible. People thought that
they are stars, we cannot see or touch them, hence we will see them in the
theatres. Now, things have changed. I have been a part of the change myself,
have seen both the sides of the coin," she revealed.
She further added, "I was there during the time when
things were changing when the stars from the galaxy started descending into
their bedrooms. Stars have become accessible now. People today don't look at
stars like someone who is inaccessible. Earlier stars were looked upon like
'Wow' but today they are looked as humans."
She further revealed about the social media trolls.
"The fans with whom we used to have a love story earlier have now become
hate story. Actors are getting trolled on social media. Thank God I am not
there, she said.
Further, she explained the reason for being away from social
media.
"In my case, because I am married to a very private
person, who is not Mr. India (unlike popular belief) and he is not only seen
through the red glass, I can see him without them too. I think I consciously
chose not to be on social media because then you cannot choose that this is the
only part of me that I would like to give my fans because you are answerable to
all of them. For me, my existence today is that yes I am married, I have a
daughter and if my fans ask me for their pictures, revealing something about my
personal life, I don't have a complete say. I cannot suddenly ask my husband to
become a media savvy person. It is not possible. If I say NO to one fan, that
fan might get delusional, so my thing is completely different. I don't mind
giving my pictures 24/7 because I am in this field and used to it but I can't
take responsibility if they ask me for my husband's pictures or if they tell me
to show Adira's pictures. I can't do that because her father also takes certain
decisions for her."
