December 3 is observed as World Disability Day. The observance of the Day aims to promote an understanding of disability issues and mobilize support for the dignity, rights and well-being of persons with disabilities. In the movies, Rani Mukerji is one of the few actors who played challenging roles like a specially-abled girl Michelle McNally in Black and a teacher who has a Tourette Syndrome in Hichki.


On World Disability Day, Rani spoke at length about the need to be an inclusive, empowering society for all Indians. The actor stated, "I learnt a lot about humanity by doing these outstanding, sensitive films like Black and Hichki. I think these films contributed to making me a better human being and I’m fortunate that I got to do these films and be a part of such beautiful cinematic visions of Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Siddharth P Malhotra. I hope these films managed to spark the right conversations in society about the need to treat everyone as equal."
