Just like other men and women, Bollywood stars are also crave to have a child. While getting married is the first step to having a baby, many choose to make a different decision. Tusshar Kapoor is one of those people who have chosen to have a baby without tying the knot.

IVF is one of the methods to have children for those who are unable to conceive or who want a baby but cannot have it the normal way. Tusshar Kapoor, a famous Bollywood star and son of Jeetendra has recently turned father through surrogacy.

What is IVF?

IVF or In-Vitro Fertilization is the process of having a baby by fertilizing the egg outside a woman’s body. Although it is expensive, it is great for couples who are unable to conceive due to some reason. The process was developed by a physiologist named Robert G Edwards. The woman’s eggs are removed and fertilized by a sperm. The fertilized eggs now called embryo are again surgically implanted to the lady’s womb.

What is Surrogate Parenting?

Surrogacy is the arrangement between the two parties participating in the IVF procedure. The surrogate is the woman who is having the baby for the couple or individual. She is artificially inseminated with the embryo. Every country has different surrogacy laws. Very often there is a strict confidentiality agreement between both parties.

Tusshar Kapoor Becomes a Father

The news of Tusshar Kapoor turning into a proud father came as a surprise for many as the family had successfully kept the news under wraps. He became a father through surrogacy and he has named his son ‘Laksshya’. Tusshar Kapoor is a famous Bollywood actor well-known for his films such as ‘Golmaal’ and ‘Kya Kool Hai Hum.’ The healthy baby boy was born in a renowned hospital in Mumbai.

Karan Johar, Riteish Deshmukh and Farhan Khan were some of those who tweeted their wishes in support of Tushar.

Other Famous Surrogate Parents

Many Bollywood couples have gone the IVF way. Due to career goals, many women in Bollywood get married at a late stage and sometimes the biological clock stops ticking by that time. Examples of Bollywood couples who have had babies through surrogacy include: Shahrukh Khan and Gauri Khan, Aamir Khan and Kiran Rao and Farah Khan along with husband Shirish Kunder.

Earlier IVF was more popular in the West and people in India were not so open about it. However, nowadays people in India are also coming out in the open and proudly proclaiming their parenthood status. Seema and Sohail Khan are another example of Bollywood couple opting for IVF. Many celebrities in the West have become parents through IVF.
