Karan Johar sent everyone into a frenzy on Sunday morning as he announced that he has welcomed twins – Yash and Roohi Johar — through surrogacy. Soon Bollywood celebs started flooding the filmmaker’s timeline with their celebratory messages. However, his close friend Shah Rukh Khan didn’t post one and speaking at Mijwan, SRK revealed the reason why he has not said anything as he believes the filmmaker deserves a certain privacy at this special moment of his life.
Karan has become a father to a baby girl and a boy. He has named the children Yash and Roohi. While Yash is his late father’s name, Roohi is the anagram of his mother’s name, Hiroo. While confirming the news of his fatherhood, Karan had written on social media, “I am ecstatic to share with you all the two most wonderful additions to my life, my children and lifelines; Roohi and Yash. I
feel enormously blessed to be a parent to these pieces of my heart who were welcomed into this world with the help of the marvels of medical science.”
Shah Rukh, who walked the ramp for Manish Malhotra at the Mijwan charity fashion show in the evening, was asked to express his thoughts on the big news about Karan. The actor hesitated to speak initially but after some prodding, he extended his best wishes for Karan. He, however, added that this moment is quite personal for the director and should be respected.
“We wish him happiness. But it’s still very personal. So, don’t think that I am being cagey by not answering about it. I have had this moment in my life so I know how personal it is. So, let’s respect it and leave it to that. We will have love, celebrations, happiness and health later,” Shah Rukh told reporters here.
