Rani Mukerji opened up about her daughter, Adira’s take on the paparazzi culture. The doting mommy revealed that Adira is confused about why the photographers keep clicking pictures of them, whenever they go outside.
Rani Mukerji had her first commercial success with the action film Ghulam (1998) and breakthrough with the romance Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (1998). Following a brief setback, the year 2002 marked a turning point for her when she was cast by Yash Raj Films as the star of the drama Saathiya. She established herself by starring in several commercially successful romantic films, including Chalte Chalte (2003), Hum Tum (2004), Veer-Zaara (2004), and Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna (2006), and the crime comedy Bunty Aur Babli (2005).
She has now revealed that her daughter Adira has an aversion to the paparazzi. Adira, who turned six in December last year, is rarely pictured in public. Rani recently revealed that it’s because Adira doesn’t like getting clicked. Also Read: Munni To Anarkali: Malaika Arora’s Hottest Item Numbers
Rani explained, “No means a no, and yes means a yes (for Adira). And you can’t really change that. She goes like, ‘No mumma, no photo.'” Rani further acted out how her daughter shouts “No photo mumma,” before recalling one particular incident between Adira and the paparazzi.

Rani said, “This time when I came back, and at the airport there were these paps. The photographers have been very kind with me. So whenever I am travelling I always tell them ‘baby ka photo mat lo (don’t take baby’s pictures)’ so they let Adira go and then they click my picture. So this time again, Adira got in first, and I was getting clicked, and then I came in the car. (She’s like) ‘Yeh bhaiya log bahot ganda hai na mumma aapka photo hamesha lete rehta hai (these people keep clicking pictures of you, they’re very bad).’ So I said ‘haan bhaiya log bahut ganda hai. Haa babu hamesha lete rehta hai (Yes they are very bad).'” Also Read: All The Times Rashmika Mandanna Rocked Ethnic Ensembles Like A Queen!
