Dia Mirza has always been a present parent in her son Avyaan’s life, and with her stepdaughter Samaira, Dia has made sure that they share a warm and friendly relationship.
The actor, who got married to businessman Vaibhav Rekhi in 2021, has often spoken warmly about their blended family.
In a recent interview, Dia revealed that if Samaira had rejected her relationship with Vaibhav, she wouldn’t have gone ahead with their marriage.
“I think when you see death early in life and when you recognise the futility of the pursuit of just the material and how it really doesn’t get you anything.
Because when you see your parent dead, and all you see is their corpse, they take nothing with them,” she said.

Because when you see your parent dead, and all you see is their corpse, they take nothing with them,” she said.
