In a heartwarming revelation, Bollywood filmmaker Karan Johar has shared that his twins, Yash and Roohi, born through surrogacy in 2017, have started asking about their biological mother. During a recent interaction, Karan opened up about the questions his children have been posing, such as "Whose stomach was I born in?"

Johar welcomed his twins via surrogacy at the age of 44, fulfilling his long-cherished dream of parenthood. He had expressed his desire to adopt or have a surrogate child in his autobiography, 'An Unsuitable Boy', stating that he felt the need to be a parent and had plenty of love to offer. Johar co-parents his children with his 80-year-old mother, Hiroo Johar.

The filmmaker has been pleasantly surprised by the overwhelming love and support his children have received on social media, despite being a target of online trolling himself. He noted that even when he shares updates about Yash and Roohi, there are no negative comments, only an outpouring of affection. Johar's decision to embrace surrogacy as a single parent has been praised by many, and he joins the ranks of other Bollywood celebrities who have opted for this path, such as Aamir Khan, Ekta Kapoor, and Tusshar Kapoor.

As Yash and Roohi grow older, Johar will undoubtedly navigate the complexities of explaining their unique birth story to them. The filmmaker's openness about his surrogacy journey and his children's curiosity sheds light on the emotional and practical considerations that come with this path to parenthood. Johar's experience serves as a reminder of the importance of open and honest communication when it comes to surrogacy and the need for a supportive environment for these families.
