Rani plans to wash her Daag!!

By Subhash K Jha

It looks the daag on Rani Mukherjee's chunri will be effectually washed off with her next release.

After giving such a grandly understated performance as the archetypal Fallen Woman in Pradeep Sarkar's Laga Chunari Mein Daag, Rani rises straight for heaven in the next Yashraj film where she plays an angel descending to earth with a rather sweet and heartwarming mission.

While Mr Bachchan plays God, ghost and a djinn in God Tussi Great Ho,Bhootnath and Alladin, Esha Deol has already played a ghost in Bhoot.

But no one has played an angel in Hindi movies before…unless we count Aftab Shivdasani who says his role as the angel in Anupam Sinha's Shukriya was his best ever.

Rani apparently took her angel's role very seriously, even going as far as to abstain from her favourite fish dishes to feel the pure and positive energy of an angel.

Says a reliable Yashraj source, "It's not easy playing an angel. It's a character absolutely without a reference point. Rani has gone into her inner resources to to create the character."

Contrary to reports she doesn't wear only one costume throughout the film. The still-untitled film will be completed in February and not in December as reported in the press.
