Deepika Padukone opens up on having kids

Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone, who has relentlessly been questioned by the public about having kids, has finally opened up on the subject in a recent interview to a news agency. She says that she and her husband Ranveer Singh are too selfishly focused on their careers at this point to even think about kids.

“I’m not surprised (by the rumours), we’re not surprised by it at all. Do we intent on having children? Of course we do, we both love kids. But do we intent on having children anytime soon? Absolutely not! We’re too selfishly at this point focused on our careers and I don’t think it would be fair to have kids at this point. We are not even thinking about kids,” Deepika mentioned in her interview. “I think it’s sad that society kind of puts itself and people in this rut that okay you are dating for so long toh shaadi kab hogi, shaadi ke baad bacche and then grandchildren. It’s almost like it’s the said expectation,” the Padmaavat actor further added.

Deepika will soon share the screen with Ranveer Singh in Kabir Khan’s ’83, a biopic based on veteran cricketer Kapil Dev. Deepika is also playing the role of the acid attack survivor Laxmi Agarwal in the movie titled ‘Chhapaak.’
