Salman Khan says he wants kids but not their mother

Like one Twitter user said: Maybe he should just birth them from his biceps then

23 May, 2019

Salman Khan is one of Bollywood's most mysterious bachelors.

At 53, the actor is single and thriving but obviously, people just can't stop asking him questions about marriage and children. While we empathise, Khan's response had us scratching our heads.

In a recent interview with India today, the Bharat actor opened up about wanting to start a family but without a woman: “I want children, but with children comes the mother. I don’t want the mother but they need one. But I have a whole village to take care of them. Maybe I can work out a win-win situation for everyone,” he shared.

Sooo...who's going to tell him that's not how it works?

While being a single parent is totally fine and the actor could be hinting at surrogacy/adoption, we still think it's a crass statement to make; women are not just baby-making machines and to dismiss them as such is highly disrespectful. Like one Twitter user said:

What a stupid statement by the actor who is over half a century old showing total disrespect to women and the beautiful thing called motherhood.

Does he not date on his mother, has he not lived with a mother, why would he want his children to be without one. He should marry an ordinary homemaker, not an actress or a model.

Never liked him as a person.

He should adopt as much as children he can and follow austerity measures on what he earns.

It's a really confused compliment

Salman Khan says I want baby without mother. I think Salman Khan replace the place as a baby and think can Salman Khan grow without his mother. I think this is not a good idea Salman please think about it.

I think Salman Khan makes perfect sense. He wants kids without the added drama of dealing with a woman, who will eventually leave him and drag him through the judicial system for the custody of their children and other financial gains. More and more people are choosing to have surrogate children.

@Trollslayer so you mean all women leave their partners everywhere... Did Aish leave Abhishek or is Deepika leaving Ranveer? Have you ever pondered on why women leave him.. He is good looking, successful etc etc... But why? The way you are looking at the world will quite be the reason of your broken relationships if you ever have one...
