On Sunday, Kollywood couple- Nayanthara and Vignesh Shivan announced that they have become parents of twin boys. Even as they did not make any official statement, there were reports that the babies were conceived through surrogacy. Several questions were raised as to whether surrogacy laws applicable in the country were followed by the couple Nayanthara and Vignesh. It is known that the couple got married four months ago.
Yesteryear actress Kasturi Shankar, who is best known for playing mother roles in films and TV, took to her twitter and made comments on surrogacy as soon as the news of the declaration of Nayanthara and Vignesh Shivan becoming parents to twin baby boys. Though she did not take Nayanthara’s name but she mentioned that surrogacy is banned in India.
Kasturi Shankar also stated that she was a lawyer by profession and made these comments from a legal angle. After the comments, she was trolled badly on social media. The netizens asked her how she know that Nayanthara opted for surrogacy. A fan wrote: Dear madam it there personal and maternal matter, surrogacy may be ban in India , not in other countries, there twins are from other country may be , let them blessed don’t sue like this …
Later Kasturi fired the media not to link her post to Nayanthara’ surrogacy. She tweeted, “Any media maliciously publishing articles linking new parents Nayantara and Vignesh Shivan to my post about surrogacy in India will be sued for libel. Consider yourself warned.”
