Rani, on the other hand, will be next seen in the family drama 'Mrs Chatterjee vs Norway', which is all set to hit the theatres on March 3, 2023.

The film has been shot extensively in Estonia and parts of India.

Rani is also coming up with her memoir, which is scheduled to release on her birthday, March 21.

The memoir will be a deeply personal, disarmingly honest account of Rani's inspiring journey.

Sharing more details about it, Rani earlier said, "In the 25 years that I have so lovingly spent in the Indian film industry, I have never spoken my heart out about my life and my journey in cinema. As women in cinema, we are constantly judged and the book delves into my personal trials and tribulations and the impact it had on me, as I navigated the industry and my career. I haven't had the time to pause, look back on my life, retrospectively and introspectively. This memoir was my way of reminiscing what I have been through right from my childhood. This one's for my fans and for every single person who has given me boundless love and kept me grounded. I look forward to their reactions when this book releases on my birthday next year, making the day even more special."

The book will be published by Harper Collins India.
