As Aditya Chopra’s comeback film Befikre hits theatres on the eve of his daughter’s first birthday, his wife and actress Rani Mukerji pens a letter to little Adira, wishing her a beautiful and ‘befikre’ life ahead.
I hope I can bring up Adira beautifully, without any fears, brave, wise, clever, disciplined well mannered, I want everyone to be proud of her. Even if nobody is proud of her, I will always be proud of her. Encourage her to follow her heart, not get bullied ever, not be pressurised for anything in life, be carefree always, happy and smiling, laughing wholeheartedly, her smile reaching her eyes.Rani Mukerji, Actress
Adira will turn one on 10 December and Rani Mukerji seems to be loving her new role as a mother. In her open letter, she also reaches out to all the mothers out there, saying that she salutes all mothers for being as selfless as they are. Rani also writes candidly about how motherhood has changed her as a person, only for the better.
One thing’s for sure, whenever Adira gets her hands on this letter, it will surely make her smile big and wide.
