Undoubtedly one of the more talented actresses of recent times, Rani Mukerji celebrates her birthday today, 21 March 2014.

Rani has given many an applause worthy performance, notable among them being Yuva, Black, Hum Tum, Veer Zaara, Saathiya and more recently Talaash. She is one of the few actresses that has survived the test of time, bettering herself with each film, regardless of the film itself. She has cut down on her workload and will only be seen in one film this year, Yash Raj Films' Mardaani, in which she enacts the part of a tough cop.

The actress turns 36 today, and in order to mark her big day we have a slideshow of her most memorable films below.

Many happy returns Rani, long may you keep shining on celluloid and here's wishing you happiness now and in the future.
