Rani Mukherjee compares Sherlyn Chopra with Hollywood legend Sophia Loren
Film industry is already a place which becomes a witness of ugly cat fights owing to the harsh competition. In such a situation, Rani Mukherjee has taken a first step to compliment her co-star for her performance.
Sherlyn Chopra was surprised when Rani Mukherjee taught her how to face the camera and even compared her with Hollywood legend Sophia Loren during the shoot of yet untitled Yash Raj Films production.
This happened to an incidence at BPCL Sports Club where the film was being shot recently. The film casts Shahid Kapur in the main lead.
Rani Mukherjee was extremely happy with the newcomer who has not yet signed any other project besides this one and started showering her with compliments. She called Sherlyn as a younger version of Hollywood legend Sophia Loren.
It was very exciting for Sherlyn as a few years ago Bipasha Basu was used to be compared to Sophia.
“Sophia Loren comparison? Well, all I can say is that I am humbled. I think Rani has been overtly nice, but hey, who doesn’t like compliments? Being someone who is so mature and serious about her work, I sincerely hope that she really meant it when she said so. I would love to keep getting feedback and compliments from an actor of her stature”, says Sherlyn with a big smile.
