A video from the celebration has now gone viral online. In the clip, Johar reads Adira’s letter slowly, letting every line sink in. The note feels warm, honest, and adorably direct. It instantly touched fans because it sounded like the kind of love only a child can express without filters.




Adira begins with pure affection and writes, “Hello Mama, first of all I just want to say how much I love you. You are the best mother in the world.” She also highlights the memories they’ve shared, from joyful to funny moments, making the letter feel deeply personal and real.

Adira doesn’t stop at compliments. She adds her own observations about what she likes, what she doesn’t, and what she thinks she has inherited. She writes, “There are some qualities I like about you, some qualities I don’t and some qualities I have inherited from you.”

One line that made many smile was when she admitted, “One quality I don’t like about you but have got from you is your short temper”. She also points out their differences in taste, saying, “We might be a bit different like how you like bold colours and I like pastel.”

The recently released trailer shows ACP Shivani Roy taking on another dangerous mission. This time, she investigates the mysterious disappearance of 93 young girls in just three months. The case gets darker when she finds that a woman named Amma is behind the crime.

Rani’s character races against time to stop the beggar-mafia queen, played by Mallika Prasad, who seems to have a larger motive for targeting girls aged eight to 11. With emotions running high on and off screen, fans are now counting down to January 30.
