Actress Rani Mukerji was recently spotted at Mumbai Police Crime Branch office. The 35 year old actress had gone there to meet Mumbai Police Crime Branch Chief.

The reason for Rani's visit to the crime branch office is that Rani is soon going to be seen as a cop in her upcoming film ‘Mardaani’ and she visited the crime branch office to understand an officer’s job profile, body language and lifestyle. The meeting between Rani Mukerji and Joint Police Commissioner (Crime) Himanshu Roy lasted for nearly an hour.

Asked about it, Roy commented - “Rani is playing the role of a crime branch officer in her upcoming film ‘Mardaani’. She wants to understand how a crime branch officer functions, ways in which officer probes various cases, officer’s body language and lifestyle among others so that she could get accustomed to the officer’s conduct.”

A source close to the development said - “She (Rani) met him as she is preparing for her role as a cop. This is part of her research for the film.”

YRF’s ‘Mardaani’ will be directed by Pradeep Sarkar.
