B-Town star Kareena Kapoor has been waiting to have a daughter since before she welcomed her first child, Taimur, with husband Saif Ali Khan.
And with the Veere Di Wedding diva expecting her second child with her husband, her old statements have been making rounds online about having a strong desire of having a daughter.
Back in 2016, while she was pregnant with Taimur, Kareena said at an event for the Global Citizen organization: “Wherever I go these days there is just one question asked which I think quite intrusive but, still I am asked, both me and Saif, whether it is a boy or is it a girl? Have you found out?”
“And I am like excuse me what difference does it make? I am a girl child I would love to have a girl what is the difference. Probably I have done more for my parents than a son would,” she continued.
“Not just for me or my child but for the millions of children out there. For all those people who think a girl child is considered taboo, a girl is considered not equal enough, not up to a man but you must know a woman is the only soul that has the right to carry a soul in her. That is truly something that is a joy,” she went on to say.
Saif and Kareena announced their pregnancy earlier this year in August. “We are very pleased to announce that we are expecting an addition to our family. Thank you to all our well-wishers for all their love and support,” read their official statement.
