It was the year 1997 when Rani Mukerji made her debut with Raja Ki Aayegi Baaraat. The film may not have done or aged well, but she established herself as an actor that can be relied upon. Actresses in Hindi Cinema have seldom begun their careers early in their lives, merely in their teens, and Mukerji was no less. Akin to Karisma Kapoor, Raveena Tandon and even seasoned and senior stars like Sridevi, she too had a brush with stardom pretty early.
