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. 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.
Rani showcased two contrasting fashion styles for the memorable occasion. The actress first wore a classic navy saree from the Sabyasachi collection before making a switch to a chic red power suit. Rani took the timeless route and sported a deep navy saree by Sabyasachi, featuring a neatly done gold border that felt classy and beautiful at the same time and looked perfect for the ceremony. She finished her look by matching the saree with a blouse, gold earrings, and a black leather watch. On the beauty note, she styled her hair in the middle and opted for make-up with rosy cheeks, kohl-lined eyes, and soft brown eyes. Rani Mukerji’s honorary doctorate may have been the official milestone, but her Sabyasachi saree and power suit made sure the fashion department was taking notes too. One look celebrated timeless Indian elegance, the other channelled unapologetic authority, and together, they proved that Rani doesn’t simply enter a new era she dresses for it.
