Karan Johar welcomed two kids, twins Yash and Roohi via surrogacy in 2017. In February, his children turned 5 and it’s been a daunting and scary yet a wonderful experience for the filmmaker being a single parent. In a new interview, Karan was asked if he chose to become a single parent due to lack of romance or no partner in life. He said that he followed his heart despite being told my many people to avoid being a single parent.
“I think, they all thought that maybe it was too much for me to handle, given my schedule. I don’t think they were saying it for societal reasons. But, I just knew I was ready to be a parent. I just knew I was ready to give a piece of my heart away. And which is what I have done with my two children. I think one big piece of my heart is them and one big piece of my heart is my mum. And I feel like that love quotient is satisfied,” Karan told Bollywood Bubble.
When Karan was asked if he felt the urge to become a single parent because of the absence of a life partner, he said, “You’ll know you want to be a parent when you’re emotionally ready. The two are not related at all. It’s not that mere zindagi mein pyaar nahi hai toh main bache le aaunga (It’s not that because I don’t have love in my life, I should have kids).”
Earlier, Karan had spoken about the challenges about being a father. “Being a single parent is really daunting and scary. Because I think it takes a mother and a father to complete the upbringing of a child. In many ways, you could say that having Yash and Roohi is full of love but it is also a selfish decision. It is because I want that love for myself. There was a large empty space in my life that needed to be filled by children,” he had told Film Companion.
