Okay, we’ve often heard about two actresses not getting along together, so this could very well be an exception to the popular belief. Contrary to reports of Rani Mukerji giving a tough time to Konkona Sen Sharma during Laaga Chunri Mein Daag, the former was reportedly rather pally with

Vidya Balan while filming No One Killed Jessica.
So much so that Mukherji ma’am invited the Balan babe to her home for Ganpati darshan recently, informs my jasoos. Viddy not only went over, but also quite a few hours chit-chatting with Rani.

Suna hai, the two have become thick sahelis and have continued to stay in regular touch despite the shooting of their movie being complete.
