Gorgeous Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone and her husband Ranveer Singh are all set to welcome their first child together. At a recent promotional event for her next film “Kalki 2898 AD,” which co-stars Prabhas and Amitabh Bachchan, the soon-to-be mother proudly flaunted her growing baby bump.
However, Deepika has seen a lot of negativity on the internet, ever since she announced her pregnancy. She has even been accused of lying about her pregnancy and using a surrogate by certain social media users! In order to focus on her journey to parenthood, the resilient actress chose to ignore these bullies entirely.
What is Surrogacy?
The act of a woman (the surrogate mother or carrier) carrying and giving birth to a child on behalf of another individual or couple (the intended parents) is known as surrogacy. The intended parents’ eggs and sperm or the eggs and sperm of donors can be used to make the embryo. Intentional parents may find surrogacy to be a beautiful way to start a family, but it can also be a difficult and stressful process.
Celebrities Who Chose Surrogacy
Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas
A happy statement was made on Instagram by Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas on the surrogate pregnancy. However, Priyanka received backlash online from people who questioned her decision, despite the couple’s excitement. She emphasised the need of understanding and respecting such individual decisions when she later talked about the medical issues that motivated her to choose surrogacy.
Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan
For their youngest kid, Abram, Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan, the popular couple in Bollywood, chose surrogacy. Abram’s birth, which occurred considerably later than that of his brothers Aryan and Suhana, was a happy event for the Khan family and demonstrated their acceptance of modern family-building methods.

Sunny has openly shared their journey, expressing gratitude for the surrogate who helped bring their sons into the world.
