Rani Mukerji has said that she hopes her new film 'Mardaani' will help empower women.
'Mardaani' addresses the issue of human trafficking.
Rani, who plays the role of a police officer in the film said: “I want women to empower themselves, unleash their inner shakti, stand up and fight against the wrong done to them.
"I cringe each time I read about girls being raped, molested, the violence against them. Can you imagine what they must go through, how their bodies, their mind and soul must be scarred? It was a physically trying film but had to be done.”
