Dia and Samaira share a close bond with each other. Earlier this year, Dia spoke openly about their relationship. During an interview with Zoom Entertainment, Dia mentioned her approach to treating Samaira as an individual, offering her affection and respect.

She said, "I treat her as an individual, which she is. I think it is so important for a child to be loved and cared. But it is also so important for a child to be respected as an individual, and I do that with Samaira because my parents did that with me. I hate the term step-daughter. Because I never referred to my father as a step-father. I had a step-father."

The actress also shared a funny story on how Samaira had saved her number as, 'not yet the evil step-mother' on her phone.

Meanwhile, Dia Mirza tied the knot with businessman Vaibhav Rekhi in 2021. Samaira is Vaibhav's daughter from a previous marriage. The couple also has a son named Avyaan.
Meanwhile, on the professional front, Dia Mirza recently featured in the socio-political drama 'Bheed', directed by Anubhav Sinha.

The film, which also starred Rajkummar Rao and Bhumi Pednekar in lead roles, garnered attention for its thought-provoking narrative. She will be next seen in 'Made In Heaven 2', which is generating significant anticipation. The show is set to premiere on Amazon Prime Video.
