Rani on protecting Adira’s privacy
Rani Mukerji and her filmmaker husband Aditya Chopra have consistently kept their daughter out of the public eye since her birth, rarely making public appearances with her or allowing photographs to be released.Speaking about the decision during her appearance on Koffee with Karan Season 8, Rani revealed that it was a conscious parental decision made jointly by the couple. “From the moment Adira was born, I have to thank all the paparazzi and all the media people, they love me so much because they respected that. They know what Adi (Aditya Chopra) is like. They have an idea of how we want to raise Adira, so that she doesn’t feel privileged or she doesn’t feel very special at school, and she feels like any other child. And he doesn’t get any extra attention. This was something Adi and I wanted for her. That would only happen if she wasn’t photographed,” she told the show.
