Tanishaa Mukerji is not bothered by the constant comparisons with sister Kajol and their careers. In a new interview with The Indian Express, Tanishaa said that she is grateful to Kajol for giving her ‘so much privilege’ in the industry but she cannot compare her career with that of her sister.

What Tanishaa said

In the interview, Tanishaa said, "These things don’t bother me. I can’t look at my sister and me and compare. I don’t even compare myself to other actors, why will I compare myself to my sister? Every actor and star has their own journey, that’s what I believe. And yes, my career was not as good as my sister, but she started when she was 16. I got so much privilege because she was in the industry. I thank her career for giving me whatever I needed. At the end of the day, I had a very comfortable career. I didn’t have to work. So from that aspect, I never compare. I think the world loves to keep comparing, I don’t live in that space.”

She also added how Kajol takes on the role of her mother, while she and their mother, veteran actor Tanuja, are friendlier. “My mother and I are like friends and my sister is like my mother. She is like all our mothers. She is the strict one, full mummy,” she added.

Tanishaa Mukerji was one of the contestants on the dance reality show Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 11 last year.
