Crystal McKellar

Her acting credits include:. Rani Mukherjee is one of the top actresses of today, that's for sure and now, she has the right to say: "been there, done that." http://filmfaremagazine.indiatimes.com/articleshow/333625.cms?&right=1&fright=1&botlink=1. She was nominated for the Best Young Actress Guest Starring In A Television Series award at the 11th annual Youth in Film Award in 1988 and 1989. Hum Tum was another big hit in the following year and by the end of 2004, her film, Veer-Zaara broke all records at the box-office and became a blockbuster accumulating more than 50 crores of rupees worldwide. She was a student of the Diane Hill Hardin Young Actors Space school, of which her sister Danica and Leonardo DiCaprio were also students. The year 2003 brought her Chalte Chalte, another hit with her favorite colleague, Shah Rukh Khan, despite not winning any awards for this one, she did get every other nomination for Best Actress within all the awards ceremonies for Indian Cinema. She and co-star Josh Saviano dated for a little while. Saathiya was a big hit for her which even got her another Filmfare Award but this time under the category for Best Actress judged by the critics which is even bigger than the popular award for Best Actress.

While in Yale too, she was editor of a magazine named Portia. It was not until 2002 when her movies started breaking box-office records. She was at Yale from 1996 to 1999 to study economics and she graduated as a Magna Cum Laude. After winning several awards for her beautiful role in Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, she was bombarded with countless offers. Crystal loves to ski, and when she went to study at Yale, she was on their ski team. She has been through a lot in the beginning of her few years here in Bollywood. Crystal still ended up participating in the show, as Becky Slater, who, in what was perhaps an irony, became Winnies love rival. Though she had the introduction into the Bollywood through her first movie Raja Ki Aayegi Baraat in 1996, she was in the news with her wonderful performance in Ghulam and with her third movie Rani was in headlines again receiving the Best Supporting Actress award from Filmfare for her active and playful performance in Kuch Kuch Hota Hai thus enhancing herself in the Bollywood.

As a matter of a fact, when Danica got the job as Winnie Cooper in The Wonder Years, directors had strongly considered giving the role of Winnie to Crystal instead before deciding on giving it to Danica. And it's a phenomenon that unless Rani hasn't put loads of concentration and tremendous personal effort in the roles she play, she wouldn't have been where she is now. At the age of seven, her family moved up to Los Angeles, and both sisters began to show interest in acting, and would sometimes compete against each other for roles. Being a cousin of one of the most versatile actress, Kajol, it's obvious that Rani too has got it through her genetic influences to enact the roles she's been given. She and sister Danica McKellar were both born in San Diego, California. She is the daughter of director Ram Mukherjee. Crystal McKellar (born August 16, 1976) is an American actress. http://www.bollywoodheaven.com/details.php?image_id=1153.
