Moreover, Rani Mukerji further informs, “‘Black’ had a profound impact on my life as an actor and as an individual. The challenges of using sign language for even the simplest tasks was a huge learning experience and a very humbling one too... Black will always remain very special to me, because it taught me a lot about life and about being grateful. Working with Amit uncle was of course one of the most memorable moments of my life.. to be able to share screen space with him and getting an opportunity to watch him delivering his best performance was in itself like a masterclass for me.. And of course, working with my favourite director Sanjay Leela Bhansali… Black is I believe one of Sanjay’s greatest work as a filmmaker! What he did with Black, is something that generations of actors, film enthusiasts, and audiences will be able to witness his brilliance for years to come. Black has remained one of the tent pole films for me, that will always be attached to my name forever. I’m most happy about the fact that finally it’s releasing on one of the best platforms and people who missed watching it will be able to see the magic of black now at the click of a button.. tudum!!!”

Now, as ‘Black’ makes its way onto Netflix, it's an opportunity for the new generation of viewers to experience the magic of this cinematic gem. The 19th-anniversary grand release on Netflix not only pays homage to the film’s significance, reaffirming Sanjay Leela Bhansali's legacy as a maestro of Indian cinema but also ensures that its impact reaches a global audience.
