Rani Mukerji's special birthday wish from Shanoo Sharma

Rani Mukerji, who celebrates her 47th birthday today, 21st March was showered with love and warm wishes by her dear friend and Yash Raj Films casting director, Shanoo Sharma. Shanoo marked the occasion with a heartfelt tribute, sharing a series of videos and photos that highlighted their long-standing friendship.

In one of the throwback videos, Rani and Shanoo were seen sitting closely together, with Shanoo affectionately resting her arm around Rani’s neck. The clip was a joyful moment, featuring the two women alongside three children, exuding warmth and camaraderie. The other images captured Rani and Shanoo in vibrant, candid moments, clearly enjoying each other’s company.

To accompany the posts, Shanoo chose a special song to celebrate Rani’s big day – the iconic track Chalka Chalka Re from Rani’s beloved film Saathiya. It was a fitting choice, bringing back memories of the actress’s memorable performances in Bollywood.


Shanoo shared the moments with a touching caption that read, “A Happy Rani to this Year! God bless your corner always! #ranimukerji #birthday #RANI.” The heartfelt message reflected the strong bond between the two, as well as the deep admiration Shanoo has for Rani.
