Indian actor Rani Mukerji delivered a speech at the Australian Parliament House, highlighting potential cultural exchanges between India and Australia through film. The event, a precursor to the 2024 Indian Film Festival of Melbourne (IFFM), also marked the 50th anniversary of Yash Raj Films.
Mukerji unveiled a commemorative postage stamp in honour of legendary filmmaker Yash Chopra. The ceremony, attended by dignitaries and parliamentarians, celebrated Chopra's cinematic legacy and his role in the globalisation of Hindi-language cinema.
During her speech, Mukerji stressed the importance of the co-production agreement between the two countries and expressed her hope for more collaboration in cinema. She also noted the impact of Australian talent on Indian audiences and said, "We love Baz Luhrman and his cinema and his musicals. You have Hugh Jackman and Nicole Kidman, who we adore in India. They have stolen our hearts with their performances and their brilliance in musicals." She added, "I am really manifesting a romance between Nicole Kidman and Shah Rukh Khan and of course a Hugh Jackman and Rani Mukerji musical."
