Rani Mukerji is disheartened that not many went to see her latest release 'Aiyyaa' and says that
actors always crave for adulation.
   
Produced by Anurag Kashyap and directed by debutant Sachin Kundalkar 'Aiyyaa' had Rani and south actor Prithviraj in lead roles. Rani played the role of a Marathi girl who falls in love with a Tamilian boy.
    
However, the film did not create magic at the box office. "Appreciation can only come if people watch the film. In case of 'Aiyyaa' probably people didn't come. It is a very sad situation for me. We actors always crave for adulation," Rani said.
    
"If our film translates into success it only means a lot of people went to watch the film. That gives us immense pleasure. The minute we know that it has flopped we feel that nobody went to see the film," she pointed out.
    
The 34-year-old actress also said that a story might appeal to different people in different ways, which determines the film's success.
    
"In case of 'Aiyya', I feel I really liked the story but it might not have appealed to the audience at large. And
that's why it didn't do well. But my work was appreciated, my dance will be remembered.
   
"Till date nobody has pointed flaws in my acting. Atleast they say Rani's film didn't work but she was fabulous. I work towards maintaining that," she said.
    
The Bengali beauty feels an actor cannot gauge the success of a film.
    
"How can we gauge... we are not saints, gods, spiritual human beings who can sit and decide whether the film will do well or not. It is not in our hands. Audience is the king and they decide every Friday," Rani said.
