“We have many examples of celebrities who have their own children, still, they have gone for a surrogate child."

Even actors like SRK, Aamir Khan and Tusshar Kapoor opted to have a child through surrogacy. While addressing a press conference and talking about the Surrogacy (Regulation) Bill, 2016 , she further added,

“I am pained to say that the procedure that started as a necessity, has become a hobby of sorts. This is not a thing for pleasure… it has become a fashion these days. Permission (under the bill) is for necessity, not shauk…there is no permission for cases in which the wife does not want to go through labour… you make a poor woman go through labour pain instead.”
