Good
news is raining in television and Bollywood! While a few celebs are opening up
about their relationship, others are walking down the aisle, and then, there
are some others who are welcoming new beings into their lives. One such
celebrity who is on cloud nine these days is none other than television soap
opera queen, Indian producer and director, Ekta Kapoor. Yes, you sensed that
absolutely correct. Ekta Kapoor is now a mother and has apparently welcomed her
first baby. Ekta Kapoor’s brother and actor, Tusshar Kapoor also has a baby
boy, Laksshya Kapoor, who was born to him through IVF surrogacy.
Tusshar is making a mark by giving some
serious parenting goals to others out there. He once stated in an interview, “I
felt the time was running out fast and I couldn’t wait to have a family, have a
child. That’s something I won’t be able to do as I grow older. I can always get
married. That’s why I decided to become a single parent." And now,
following his footsteps, Ekta has also welcomed her baby. According to a report
in Mumbai Mirror, Ekta has become a mother to a baby boy on January 27, 2019,
through surrogacy.
Also, the report further suggests that the
newborn baby is perfectly fine, healthy and will be home very soon. The Mumbai
Mirror report can be read as, “The 43-year-old has had a son via a surrogate;
the child was born on January 27. The baby is healthy and will be home soon. For
the ones who don’t know, Ekta is very close to her nephew, Laksshya. She was
once found stating, “My life has changed.” And further went on to add, “If
there’s anything that’s most important in my life [now], then that’s Laksshya.
Every day, he does something new and we all look forward to that. I miss him
every time I’m travelling on work.
You
know, the lakshya (target) of my life now is to look after Laksshya. In another
interview, Ekta had remarked, “I am a human being who recovered from a lot of
pain last year because of my nephew. I had many professional ups and downs last
year. Television did very well but films did not and that is very in your face
because everyone knows it did not do well. So, it just hits you more. But my
nephew would just suck out every bit of tension from me.
