Surrogacy: SP leader Abu Azmi mocks Karan Johar

Lucknow, Mar 6 (IBNS): Samajwadi Party leader Abu Azmi has triggered a controversy by asking why filmmaker Karan Johar, who has announced that he has become father to twins-a boy and a girl-through surrogacy, did not marry.

"He is old. Can't he get married?," Azmi told reporters on Johar.

"If he had any medical issue then he could have adopted. Why this surrogacy move was taken?" he asked.

Johar on Sunday announced that he has become father to twins-a boy and a girl-through surrogacy.

He has introduced his children to the world as Roohi and Yash.

Johar tweeted: "I am ecstatic o share with you all the two most wonderful additions to my life, my children and lifelines; Roohi and Yash."

He wrote: "I feel enormously blessed to be a parent to these two pieces of my heart who were welcomed into this world with the help of the marvels of medical science."

According to media reports, the children were born last month at Masrani Hospital in Mumbai where actor Shah Rukh Khan's third child AbRam was delivered by a surrogate mother.
