Sutapa Sikdar on Daughter’s Day: I feel sad that a girl child got deprived of Irrfan Khan’s parenting

Today as the entire nation is celebrating Daughter’s Day, late actor Irrfan Khan’s wife Sutapa Sikdar opened up about how he desperately wanted to have a daughter. Sutapa took to social media to share how she feels sad that a girl child got deprived of Irrfan’s parenting.

It is still difficult to accept the fact that Irrfan Khan is no longer with us. Today on the occasion of Daughter’s Day, Irrfan’s wife Sutapa shared yet another sensitive part of his personality. Recalling about her second delivery, Sutapa took to Facebook and wrote, “Me and Irrfan wanted to have a daughter so desperately that on my second delivery my doc could not utter the word son and said instead “congratulations!! healthy child!!”. I was disappointed yes I was. That day for us and today I feel sad that a girl child got deprived of Irrfan’s parenting of a girl. Because just giving freedom is not enough to a girl child.”

She further added, “Whatever is happening around makes me say freedom is not about only being vocal it’s not about trodding on other’s freedom only. Let’s get up beyond being voyeuristic beyond the so-called emancipation and do something more concrete meaning full for India..”

You can check a screenshot of her post below:
