Rani Mukerji has often revealed how her 10-year-old daughter, Adira Chopra, is her biggest cheerleader. Rani Mukerji, in a fresh interview, spoke about how her daughter, who belongs to Gen Alpha, often scares
her as she is fearless in her approach.
Speaking to Zoom, Mukerji shared, “After my dad (Ram Mukherjee) passed away, I really miss getting his feedback on my performance. It is tough, but God balances things. He gave me my daughter. She is extremely close to me, and she is extremely proud of me. My daughter has taken my father’s place. She is my biggest cheerleader today. Though she has not seen my films because she’s too attached and she feels sad when she sees me cry, she finds it difficult to watch me on screen. She likes to see me when I’m dancing and when I am happy on screen. She loves Hichki, Thoda Pyaar Thoda Magic, and Bunty Aur Babli. Kuch Kuch Hota Hai was tough for her to watch because, in the first scene, I die, so I couldn’t go beyond that.”
Speaking about how her daughter doesn’t like her when she puts on makeup, Rani shared, “When I am wearing makeup, she tells me, ‘Mamma, you are not looking like my mother.’ So when I remove my makeup and come to her, she tells me, ‘Now you look like my mother.’”
Sharing how she consciously chooses how she wants to approach her daughter, she said, “She also fires me. She is Gen Alpha, so she fires me, and I have to listen to her. Because every generation changes. I used to get slaps from my mom. I can’t expect to do that with her because she would slap me back. During my National Award, she was jumping in the house while the National Awards were happening. It’s very sweet, but because she is an Alpha kid, I am very scared of her.”
