Actress Shraddha Kapoor, who is currently busy shooting a biopic, took half a day off to make time for her cousin sister's birthday.

Shraddha's cousin Vedika's birthday was on January 31, and she requested the movie team to give her half the day off so that she could celebrate with the little one.

The makers granted Shraddha's wish and let her off for half the day.

"I would grab any opportunity to spend time with Vedika. She's the apple of all our eyes, in the family. I'm extremely grateful to my team for giving me that day off to spend with her on her birthday," Shraddha said in a statement.

Vedika is the daughter of Shraddha's aunt Tejaswini Kolhapure. Shraddha has also posted baby Vedika's pictures on her Twitter profile on numerous occasions.

Meanwhile, the actress is caught up with the shoot of the biopic on Haseena Parkar, the late elder sister of fugitive underworld don Dawood Ibrahim.
