/> It has been hell, and back, for Zoa Morani as she watched father--producer, events organizer and Shah Rukh Khan's trusted lieutenant Karim Morani being whisked away into jail for his alleged involvement in the 2G scam.

Though the agony is far from over, the Moranis got a breather when Karim Morani was released on bail earlier this week.

Emotional and exultant Zoa recalls that exact moment when her father's release from incarceration happened. "My sister and I were in the High Court when the honourable Judge said, ‘BAIL granted'!It was 3 : 49 pm, Mom was with Papa in Patiala House. . I don't know how to describe the moment.

My whole body started shivering. And then Shaza and I just ran out of the court and down the stairs. We were literally running on the road like two crazy girls to reach Patiala House to hug my Mom and Pop. As a family I never felt happier being together, What a feeling. Unbelievable!

We went to pick him up, my mother was glowing, my sister didn't stop giggling for four hours and I was in shock that its finally happened. "

The Moranis are at the moment savouring this moment of freedom-regained, not allowing the future clouds to darken their moment of sunshine.

"Papa is a bit dazed. It still has to sink in that it's finally happened, its been 6 months. His health is a matter of concern as he is a heart patient. But he has come out looking very handsome. We are taking him to do all the various tests. "

Karim will resume work and hopefully a normal life.

Says Zoa, "I'm sure he is very excited to get back to work. The trial has started, and we will now work towards proving Papa's innocence. "

Reliving the nightmare of the last six months Zoa says, "There are no words to describe how hard it has been. My sister Shaza and I didn't leave Mom alone for even a second in these 6 months.

Being together helped my father to be less stressed. We survived thinking that god is doing this to us only because he has loads of happiness in store for us. We were just paying karma for the good times to come. "

Zoa who has lost the threads of her career that had just started with her debut film when the crisis happened, hopes to regain lost ground now.

"I've been in Delhi for six months, just a day after my debut film Always Kabhi Kabhi released I left for Delhi, But I guess God had this in store for me. So be it. I will start working hard now, doesn't matter. It affected me mentally. God gave me an opportunity and my debut film released but then this happened. "

Losiing out on a career just when it started traumatized Zoa. "I use to get drained thinking that I've just thrown away my career and not done anything to work towards it after my release. "

However Zoa prefers to give the film industry, known to turn away from individuals in trouble, a clean chit. "Of course a lot of people were supportive, it felt nice. I'm proud of Papa.. He has a lot of well-wishers. "
