Mumbai: Rani Mukherji today said she became an actor by default as it was a decision that was taken by her mother.
"I
did not decide (to become actor), my mum decided for me. When we were
young it was a different generation, unlike what happens today. I was an
obedient child.
"So I did whatever my mum said, she said become
an actor, so I became an actor. She realised my thing (of actor) before
me. I became an actor by default. I thank my mum today
as I don't think I would be anything else than an actor," Rani said at a
promotional event of her upcoming film "Hichki".
Rani also
advocated that girls these days should learn self defense techniques and
said she would want her daughter Adira to take up both boxing and
dancing.
"I believe today all girls should learn martial arts,
self defence and then learn dance after that. So I would like my
daughter to learn both," she added.
