Talking about how she picks her roles, Adah said that she just goes by instinct and will do so in the future as well.

She said: “My debut film was in the horror genre, and after that, I kept getting horror roles. However, after ‘Kerala Story’, I started receiving different types of roles, and I’m happy that filmmakers can see my potential. For example, my next upcoming project will be completely different from my role in ‘Kerala Story’.”
‘Kofuko’ is based on the story of two different yet similar individuals who are finding comfort in the company of each other whilst learning a new perspective of life.
Actor Jatin Sarna who co-stars in the short film with the ‘Kshanam’ actress, speaking about the actress called her an inspiration. Detailing his point, he said: “Adah is truly an inspiration. I watch Adah’s videos, and sometimes I’m left in awe watching her excel in martial arts.”
He added: “When she effortlessly wields a stick and twirls it around… I can’t help but wonder when I’ll be able to achieve such action-packed feats in my own life. She serves as an inspiration and propels me toward positivity in this way.”
He said: “Adah and I should consider doing a full-fledged romantic film, steer away from the typical romantic pieces that are currently trending. It should be something very unique with a deeply rooted story.”
‘Kofuku’ premiered on October 9 on JioCinema Film Festival and can be streamed on JioCinema.

He further mentioned: “‘Taare Zameen Par’ was an emotional film, this film will make you laugh. That film made you cry, this one will entertain you. But the theme is the same, that’s why we kept this name very thoughtfully. We all have flaws, we all have weaknesses, but we all also have something special.”
