The one question that Salman Khan is most frequently asked is when will he get married. However, the 53-year-old seems to be in no mood to get hitched anytime soon. Infact, he is now planning to embrace fatherhood.
A latest Times of India report suggests that Salman Khan is planning to go the Shah Rukh Khan and Karan Johar way to become a father.
“Since Salman Khan is yet not ready for marriage, our sources have told us that the actor is opting for surrogacy instead. Many stars from Bollywood like Shah Rukh Khan, Aamir Khan, Karan Johar, Ekta Kapoor have opted for surrogacy in recent times. And now, Salman Khan is also ready to follow this route since he has no plans to get married. The actor has always shared a close bonding with his nieces and nephews, and finally he is ready to welcome his own kid to the Khan family through surrogacy," the report states.
It’s a known fact that Salman is fond of children. In fact, in the past, the Dabangg actor has gone on record to say that if he ever decides to marry, it will be for kids only.
Earlier in 2017 in an interview to Filmfare, when asked about his marriage plans, Salman had said, ,”No I don’t feel that time is running out… but I am sure when I am 70 and my child is about 20, then I’d feel it. The only reasons I’d want to have a child right now or in the near future, say in two or three years, is because I’d want mom and dad to see my child.”
In 2016, during an event in Mumbai, while addressing the same question, Salman had said, "But I want to have three or four kids. Now I know without marriage kids are difficult to get but I will manage it. Pehle umar nahi tha shaadi ka aur ab umar paas ho chuka hai and I am happy.”
