Earlier in the interview with ANI, Lara opened up about her relationship with her daughter.

"It's very nice when you hear mothers of teenage girls say that we are not really mother and daughter, we are more like best friends. But I know that when my daughter is a teenager, I don't want to be her best friend. I want to be her mother. Because if I am her best friend, then who the hell is her mother?" she had said. (ANI)
