Rani keeps her promise to visit Yerwada Central prison
After Mardaani, Rani Mukerji has become quite a hit among female cops. The actress was recently invited by the Yerwada Central Prison officers and staff to launch ‘Radio YCP’ and ‘Maka’. Radio YCP is a ‘radio like facility' for the prisoner where an hour of entertainment is provided with a prisoner playing the role of a Radio jockey. The team along with Rani then proceeded with Mr Desai (Jail Superintendent) to the barracks and prison cells where freedom fighters used to be lodged during the independence movement. Rani Mukerji also toured the female jail of Yerwada Central Prison. Says a source, "Rani was very touched when during an informal talk the female prisoners said that they’ve watched her films. One of them also gifted her a crochet jacket." Talking about her visit, Rani says, "It was a very humbling experience to visit the historic Yerwada prison where our freedom fighters like Gandhiji, Motilal Nehru, Sardar Patel and many others were lodged during the independence movement . I felt privileged to have gone to the cells where they spent many years of their life. Also, I'd like to thank Meeran for inviting me to launch the brand 'Maka', which comprises of a slew of products made by the prison inmates. It’s a great initiative aimed at their vocational training and also to keep them in a positive frame of mind." As a token of her appreciation, Rani is said to have donated an ECG machine for the infirmary. The actress also shopped for some bakery products to take back home which were made by the prisoners. Quite a noble deed on Rani's part, we say.
