Karan Johar recently revealed that his kids have started questioning him about their mother. The director, who is the father to twins, Yash and Roohi, born via surrogacy, spoke about the challenges of bringing up his children as a single parent.

On revealing the questions his kids are asking about their mother, the director said, “It is a modern family. It is an unusual circumstance, so now I am also dealing with the questions about ‘whose stomach was I born in? But mumma is not mumma really, she is my grandmother’. I am going to school, to the counsellor, to ask how do we navigate the situation? And it is not easy, being a parent is never easy.”

Speaking about projecting his own insecurities on his son, Karan said, “When I see my son consuming sugar and I see he has put on more weight, then I am so paranoid for him. I don’t want to say it to him because this is the age where I want him to live his life, I want him to be happy and joyous because he is a happy child, do all the things that I didn’t do. But I shouldn’t be this parent. I want my kid to be an individual of his own choice, my daughter, and my son both.”
