In the same conversation, Rani also talked about the kind of human being her husband, Aditya Chopra is. Speaking on the same lines, Rani mentioned that it is her and Aditya's mutual decision to keep Adira out of the public stare. Then, explaining the reason behind the same, Rani shared that she and her husband prefer that Adira shouldn't receive any special attention. Thus, elaborating how this decision has helped Adira to be not a very special kid at school and other places, the doting mommy stated:
"Right from the time Adira was born, I have to thank all the paparazzi and all the media people; they really love me because they kind of respected that. They know how Adi (Aditya Chopra) is. It was our decision together that we didn't want Adira to be photographed because we have a different 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 kid. And she doesn't get any extra attention. That was something Adi and I wanted for her. That would only happen if she would not be photographed."
Further, Rani recalled the first time, she travelled with Adira outside the country and called it a significant moment. Narrating the incident, the Mardani actress mentioned how this was also the first encounter of her baby girl with the paps. Thus, she had soon requested the paps not to click a picture and shared, "Please don't take pictures of the baby." However, Rani also mentioned how the paps are also extremely cordial with her and have respected her wishes since that day. Furthermore, since then, every time she travels, the paps patiently wait till Adira is safely inside the car or airport before they start capturing Rani's photos or videos.
