Salman Khan says he wants kids but not their mother

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

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.
