In a candid and empowering conversation on Soha Ali Khan’s podcast All About Her, Sunny Leone opened up about the often-overlooked routes to parenthood—sparking a much-needed dialogue around adoption, surrogacy, and IVF. Leone, who adopted her daughter Nisha Kaur Weber in 2017 and welcomed twins Asher and Noah via IVF and surrogacy in 2018, confronted the societal stigma that surrounds non-traditional family paths.
Soha Ali Khan shine light on motherhood alternatives; says, “There is taboo when it comes to IVF, surrogacy, and adoption”
The heart of the episode was encapsulated by Khan’s incisive reflection, “The episode is centred on IVF, surrogacy, and adoption. Besides Sunny, we had Dr Kiran Coelho. Women put so much pressure on themselves to become pregnant because they want to have children. There are options, but we don’t talk about or celebrate those options. There is taboo when it comes to IVF, surrogacy, and adoption.”
As the podcast gears up for release in the coming weeks, Soha expressed hope that the discussion will serve as a beacon for couples wrestling with conventional expectations. “It was nice to have somebody talk about the other ways [to embrace parenthood] in such a positive and empowering way. The conversation will open doors for many people to think, ‘I have tried naturally for a while. Maybe I can start thinking about [options].’ At the end of the day, do you want to be a parent? Or do you want to be pregnant? They are two very different experiences,” she remarked.
This episode comes at a time when Bollywood figures, including Sunny Leone, continue to reshape public perceptions of motherhood. Leone’s openness contributes to a broader movement among public personalities who are helping normalize alternative paths to building a family.
By speaking out with such clarity, both Leone and Khan may well inspire a shift toward greater acceptance and celebration of diverse parenthood journeys—encouraging individuals and couples to prioritize the desire to parent, rather than the traditional route of pregnancy.
