Real-life Mrs Chatterjee Sagarika Bhattacharya’s reaction
The real-life inspiration for Mrs Chatterjee Vs. Norway, Sagarika Bhattacharya, admitted that Rani Mukerji’s portrayal of her impacted her. In a media statement, she said, “I want to thank Rani Mukerji for channeling the grief and struggles that I went through to win back my children. She is a mother herself and I thank her for bringing a mother’s painful journey on screen with so much dignity that I broke down while seeing her in the trailer.”
She also added, “It’s hard to put into words how it feels seeing my story being told. Watching the trailer, I felt like I was reliving my battle. I believe it is important for people to know this story and to see how immigrant mothers/parents are treated even today, as is evident from the tragic story in Germany. I’ve been in touch with Ariha Shah’s mother Dhara, whose little girl has been taken away. I implore you all to stand by her, just as I do. My support is unconditional, from one mother to another.”
