Rani Mukerji and Aditya Chopra have always been protective of their daughter Adira's privacy. Her protectiveness was once again seen during her latest appearance at Mumbai airport, when she personally ensured the paparazzi cameras did not capture her daughter.
Rani Mukerji's video from the airport is being circulated online, showing the actress greeting the paparazzi with a smile and gracefully posing for pictures before making her way to her car. However, just before getting into the car and leaving, a photographer seemingly attempted to click a picture from a different angle as she sat in the car, where Adira was presumably already seated.
Noticing the paparazzo, Rani asked the paparazzi not to click photos from there. She then went to personally check the camera and make sure that her daughter was not captured by any chance. While going through the photos, the actress asked the photographer, "Bachchi nahi aayi naa? (The child is not captured, right?)"
Rani was relieved only after ensuring her daughter wasn't clicked. She then got into her car and departed from the airport. This incident has caught the eye of fans on social media as many are appreciating the actress for taking care about the privacy of her daughter.
Over the years, Rani and her husband director Aditya Chopra have always been uncompromising when it comes to keeping Adira away from the limelight. They have never made her face public so far.
Rani Mukerji and Aditya Chopra tied the knot on April 21, 2014, in an intimate ceremony in Italy, which was attended by only a few members of thier close family and friends, including filmmaker Karan Johar.
The couple welcomed their daughter, Adira Chopra, on December 9, 2015. Ever since her birth, the couple has consciously chosen to keep her from the limelight. They wish to give her a normal childhood away from constant media attention.
Talking about Adira, Rani, earlier this year said, "She has become a double-digit (laughs), which is so beautiful. Not that I'm happy about it, because I still go back to her baby pictures, to the extent that she started feeling jealous of her own self. She's like, âMumma, why are you watching me like this? I am like this now (pointing at herself).' I am like, âI understand you are like this now, but I want this, I want you in my lap.' And now she's bigger than me, I can be on her lap. So I miss those days of just carrying her everywhere, like she was my favourite accessory. So yeah, now that has changed. They grow up too fast, especially girls. They grow too fast."
