Rani Mukerji goes from Sabyasachi saree to power suit as she collects an Honorary Doctor of Letters from Australia’s La Trobe University

Rani Mukerji has received a new title and, of course, iconic outfits to add to her wardrobe. The National Award-winning actress has now been awarded an Honorary Doctor of Letters by La Trobe University in Australia for almost three decades of work in Indian cinema as well as a number of contributions made off-screen. It is important to mention that she is only the second Indian film personality to receive such an honour after Shah Rukh Khan, who was also awarded the title by the university back in 2019.
