Karan also asked Rani how she managed to keep Adira away from the limelight and managed to keep her away from getting papped.

To this, Rani said, "I just tell them not to take baby's picture and I think they see my eyes and they get scared. I have to thank all the paparazzi and all the media people. They really love me because they kind of respect that and they know how Adi (Aditya Chopra) is and it was our decision together that we didn't want Adira to get photographed. Because we have a very different ideas of how we want to raise Adira so that she doesn't feel privileged or she doesn't feel very special in school and she feels like any other kid. All this while whenever I travel they always wait till Adira goes into the airport and then they click my pictures"

Meanwhile, on the work front, Shilpa was last seen in the family entertainer film 'Sukhee'. The actress will next be seen in Rohit Shetty's 'Indian Police Force', alongside Sidharth Malhotra and Vivek Oberoi.
