Rani Mukerji is fascinated by Krav Maga

Ever since Rani Mukerji learnt Krav Maga for her film Mardaani, she has been fascinated by the martial art. Developed for the military in Israel, this self-defence system comprises a combination of boxing, judo, wrestling and grappling techniques.

What the actress found intriguing was that this form of fighting required less physical strength, which makes a weak person become stronger just by using technical knowledge. Rani, who will be seen essaying the role of a police officer in Mardaani, underwent special training for the film. A group of professionals were flown down from Israel to train her.
