On an earnest request made by Rani paps never clicked pics of her daughter Adira

The paps have refrained clicking pictures of Rani Mukerji and Aditya Chopra's daughter Adira in the past.

In a video shared by a photographer on his Instagram account, Rani was once heard saying, "Achcha, Ek minute stop karna, baby ka photo mat lena." The paparazzi willingly complied with her request. 

Last year, on a television show, Rani expressed her reservations about Adira being in the public eye. She said:

I want Adira to grow up normally. (Otherwise) you get unwanted and undeserved attention without having achieved anything in life. I want Adira to be treated like any other child in school. Aditya and I don't want her to be photographed constantly.

Aditya prefers to keep Adira away from the spotlight. Talking about her husband, Rani said, "It's not as if he is paranoid about the cameras. He doesn't want to be photographed."
