Deepika Padukone baby plan

Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh’s chup chup ke wala love was the talk of the town, ever since the two had started shoot for their film, Goliyon Ki Rasleela Ram-Leela. While the two had kept their six years long relationship under the wraps, their fans had sensed their seriousness for each other and since then, they love them as ‘Deepveer.’ After all the speculations, the couple had gotten married on November 14 and 15, 2018 in Konkani and Sindhi style.

It was assumed that Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh will soon announce the news of starting their family, however, the two have been proving everyone wrong. In an interaction with express.co.uk, Deepika had opened up about her plans to embrace motherhood and had said:

"It will happen when it has to happen. Motherhood trumps being married. That’s what I hear from people who have had children. Of course, it will happen at some point but no, I think it is unfair to put women through that, to put a couple through that. I guess the day we stop asking the questions is when we will bring about change."

In another interview with Harper’s Bazaar US, Deepika had shared how she would want to raise her child with her husband, Ranveer Singh. She had said:

“My sister and I had two working parents who were still able to give every aspect of their lives, time, and dignity, whether it’s work or being home with us. I hope that when Ranveer and I start a family, we’re able to do it the way I experienced it as a child with my parents. Just rooted, wholesome and secure."

Sonam Kapoor and Anand Ahuja are making their and everyone’s #EverydayPhenomenal, ever since the two had come out in open about their relationship. After various rounds of speculations regarding their wedding, Sonam and Anand had taken the saat pheras on May 8, 2018, making their relationship perfect by respecting each other’s profession, supporting and empowering each other.

Just like her wedding rumours, Sonam is often speculated to be pregnant, however, none of those reports has come true. During an interview with FirstPost just 2 months after her wedding, Sonam had talked at length about having kids. She had said:

"Anand and I had a very long conversation you know, and we obviously want to have kids eventually, and he had this one friend who had a very long name, his mother’s name, father’s name, blah blah blah. I said, see anyways it’s a patriarchal concept, I have my father’s last name, I don’t have my mother’s name, and I want to be part of your family as well, and he wanted to be a part of mine.”

Sonam kapoor motherhood

Sonam had further talked about the name of kids and had said that though her name has become a long one and so has Anand’s, she thinks that it is an amazing thing. She had said:

"Now Sonam Kapoor Ahuja becomes very long, but in our passports, I’ll be Sonam Kapoor Ahuja and he will be Anand Sonam Ahuja. Which I think is amazing. Because I wanted to have the same name as my child and I wanted my child to have my name as well. For now, this was the best compromise we could come with, Anna, where our child has both our names which has nothing to do with my father, but I still have my father’s name because I love him and my progressive thoughts come from him, but I also wanted my husband’s name and he wanted my name."

“And even if the child didn’t happen, it is okay. There are many children in our country, we can take care of them as well, we are fortunate.

Haarsh, who is a scriptwriter for comedy shows had fallen in love with Bharti. The comedian had known Haarsh for seven years as he had always written scripts for her shows. The two had shared a good rapport and had fallen for one another.

Ever since, Bharti Singh and Haarsh Limbachiyaa’s wedding, the two are often asked about their plans to embrace parenthood. The couple is eager to start a family, however, they have to delay their plans for one reason or another. Bharti and Haarsh had plans to start a family in 2020 but due to the Coronavirus pandemic, they had postponed it. In an interview with TellyChakkar, Bharti had said:

"Well, I want to become a mother. In fact, Haarsh and I had planned to go family way in 2020. Socha toh tha ki 2020 mai 20-20 khel lu. However, due to the coronavirus outbreak, I don’t wish to take any chance. I can’t plan a baby in such tension. I want my baby to come in a healthy environment. Right now, it is risky to even visit a hospital and once you get pregnant, you have to visit a doctor for regular check-ups. Might as well wait for another year than putting a small baby’s life at risk.”

Bharti Singh

It seems that Bharti will not have a baby in 2021 as well, due to the pandemic. In one of the episodes of Dance Deewane, a contestant had shown the real-life story of a young mother, who had lost her 14-day old baby to Coronavirus. It had made Bharti emotional as she was planning to start a family in 2020 had postponed the idea due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Breaking down into tears, Bharti had said:

“We are planning a baby but after hearing about such cases, we don’t feel like starting a family. We are deliberately not talking about having a baby because I don’t want to cry like this.”

Vidya Balan

She had further talked about motherhood and how she feels it has nothing to do with age. She had said:

“Motherhood has nothing to do with age. This is a predicament most working women face today since they are getting married in their 30s. Many of my friends have told me that it’s fulfilling to wake up in the morning and look at your baby, clean him/her up--but it’s all so consuming. This would leave you with little energy for anything else. I don’t know how I’ll deal with that.”

Cupid had struck South sensations, Samantha Akkineni and Naga Chaitanya when they were working together for the film, Ye Maaya Chesave.

Samantha’s fans often ask her about her pregnancy plans and want the couple to start their family soon. In an interview with Film Companion, Samantha had talked about her pregnancy plans and had said:

"I have put a date as to when I want my baby. The date has been fixed! Like, as if that's going to happen according to the date we have fixed! But Chay (Naga Chaitanya) seems to be certain that it will happen on the assigned date! But we have definitely fixed the timeline as to when we want to have a baby."

Samantha had also talked about how she plans to give her child the most of the time after embracing motherhood. She had said:

"When I have a child, that child is going to be my universe. I had the greatest respect for working mothers. My childhood was not very rosy. For all adults, who haven't had a very rosy childhood, the first thing they will tell you is that they want to give their child everything that they did not have. That's something that has stuck with me. So I think the first few years after I have a child, I would not be anywhere. That child will be everything for me."

Well, pregnancy is one thing that is very personal to every couple, yet every celebrity couple deals with pregnancy rumours and the question of ‘Are you pregnant?’ Every couple has their own plan to start a family and has the right to decide as and when they want to welcome a baby into their lives. We hope to hear good news from the celebrities soon, however, we also support their choice to take time and be mentally prepared for the biggest decision of their lives!
