Didn't want the baby to feel that we got into a relationship because she was coming, confesses Purab Kohli!


Bollywood actor Purab Kohli lately became a father now. He and his fiance Lucy were blessed with a baby girl in December 2015. In a country where having a baby without wedding is considered a taboo, this one was really a heroic step.

Enquire Purab if there was any pressure on him to get wedded before the baby was born and he confesses, "My mother had a concern. She was the most concerned. But of course, when Inaya was conceived, we weren't married. It didn't really matter to both of us. Lucy called me and said 'We are having a baby' and my first reaction was 'Wow'. I said let’s do it. There was pressure and my family wanted us to get married before the baby was born. But I was very adamant to do it before the baby was born because I didn't want her to feel that we got into a relationship because she was coming. Her coming into this World has transformed both our lives to the better. She is really our love child. And she has bloomed more love between the two of us and has made me love my life more by coming into it. I don't want her to ever feel that it was not meant to be. It was meant to be in every possible way. She was a force of nature that nothing could stop from coming."

Ask him if fatherhood has changed him and Purab reveals, "Fatherhood has changed everything yaar. It is a gift I wish upon everybody especially of a baby girl. Like I am thinking how soon can I run out of this interview and go home, before she goes to sleep. You start thinking in that direction. When you have a child, you stop living for yourself. Mothers think fathers are useless but we as fathers are not that useless. Lucy in fact points out this to me that none of her friend's husbands have had this strong relationship with their baby. Inaya and I have good connection and we have lot of fun together. She looks out for me and has a smirk in her eyes when she sees me."


Now that the baby will be turning a year old this December, we enquire Purab when does he plan to get wedded and the Rock On 2 actor discloses, "We have signed papers already but we will have a big celebration next year. We just want Inaya to be standing on her two feet and hold flowers. It would probably next year, around this time - September or October. It will be in London."
