During our engaging discussion, we inquired if Adah has earned the title of Vipul Amrutlal Shah's favorite actress. Having previously worked together on projects like The Kerala Story 2 and Bastar The Naxal Story, Adah remarked, “Vipul Sir treats everyone equally, regardless of gender. He tends to work with the same actors and crew, including his production team and technical staff. Many, like Vidyut Jammwal and Akshay Kumar, have collaborated with him multiple times. I believe I’m now a close third with Governor.”

When reflecting on her acting career, Adah humorously summarized, “From 1920 to Rs 375 crore – from history to making history. Adah Sharma’s 100-year journey in Indian cinema.” She emphasized her preference for dramatic roles, suggesting her journey should be equally dramatic.
