Filmmaker and Dharma honcho Karan Johar welcomed son Yash and daughter Roohi via surrogacy in February 2017. He named Yash after his deceased father Yash Johar, while Roohi is an anagram of his mother`s name Hiroo. In a recent interaction with Faye D’Souza, Karan opened up on unintentionally ‘fat-shaming’ his 7-year-old son while on a holiday and how sorry he felt for the same.
Karan said, “It breaks my heart when I see my son consuming sugar and putting on weight... I am so paranoid about it. I don’t want to say it to him because this is the age I want him to enjoy life. I want him to be happy and carefree because he is a happy child. But I can see the genetic... I can’t call it a flaw, I get it from my mom and I know he’s getting it from me."
