    Karan Johar Wants To Be A Father And This Is What He Has To Say About It

    Karan Johar’s book An Unsuitable Boy is making waves everyday but there’s one aspect in the book which has not been talked about. It’s his plan for having a child.

    Yes, Karan, who is often seeing cuddling AbRam and hanging around with Aryan Khan and Suhana has thought over having his own progeny.

    Here’s what he has to say!

    “I have been thinking about having a child for a long time. It is the biggest emotional thought in my head right now. I am not growing any younger.”

    And, like most other people he has the same valid reasons for why he craves for having a child.
    “I am in and out of hospitals because my mother sometimes keeps poor health. I am drawn to these visuals much more now than I ever was. Previously, when I was younger, and looked at a person in a wheelchair, I might have stared a bit but then looked away because I had my own life to deal with. Now I think, who’s going to be wheeling me in and out? These thoughts are scary. Then I wonder – do I want a child just because of my needs? Then I realize the truth, yes, it’s just for me – my big emotional investment that hopefully will pay rich emotional dividends when I need it.”

    That sounds like he’s investing in property or some commodity. Makes you a bit angry right? He has a justification for that too.
    Karan says, “I am looking at it in the way people look at it when they are hiring CEOs or domestic staff. I am looking at literally getting a child as my old age insurance.”

    But what’s his plan for having a kid?
    “So this is the zone I’m in, where I am thinking about having a child. It will, of course, have to be a surrogate child, or I will have to adopt. These are two options that I have in front of me. I have all kinds of decisions to make, such as: Am I ready to be a father? Am I ready to slow down and take care of another life? Obviously, being a parent comes with a huge amount of responsibility. Am I ready for that? Am I emotionally ready? Am I pragmatically read? Am I professionally ready to slow down and make that space? More than anything else, how will I be as a parent? The only thing I feel is that because I have nurtured so many young careers, a sense of parenting has crept into me, so I may be ready. So am I thinking of my life as my career? But I am not one of those who rest on his laurels. I always say, move ahead! When one job gets done, you move on to the next one. I am that kind of person. I have never sat and re-evaluated my life or my career. It’s like how I am thinking now about what’s going to happen.

    The real reason why he wants to have a child
    I don’t want to die without a sense of family around me. And selfishly, I want to have a child who will take care of me because I am afraid of growing old alone. That’s my greatest fear. Death doesn’t scare me, life sometimes does.
