Both Shah Rukh Khan and Karan Johar have welcomed children through surrogacy In surrogacy, intended parents coordinate with a gestational surrogate who carries and cares for their offspring(s) until birth. For couples who cannot bear children on their own, surrogacy is an assisted reproduction procedure. Notably, the gestational carriers have no genetic relationship to the children they deliver. In Bollywood alone, stars like Karan Johar , Shah Rukh Khan , Ekta Kapoor , Aamir Khan , have gone for surrogacy.
