Sonam Kapoor Ahuja: My Kids Will Have ‘Sonam Ahuja’ In Their Name!

What can be more rewarding for a woman than her children carrying her name. How we all women want our identity to retain, even after getting married and starting an altogether new life. Well, such is the wish of the newly married Sonam Kapoor Ahuja.

After Sonam’s marriage with Anand Ahuja, the couple changed their Instagram names to Sonam K Ahuja and Anand S Ahuja respectively. Though the couple have been stealing all the limelight with their cute moments, a lot of people criticized them for changing their names.

Recently, when Sonam was interacting with Firstpost, when she was asked about all this mayhem, she said, “Anand and I had a very long conversation you know, and we obviously want to have kids eventually, and he had this one friend who had a very long name, his mother’s name, father’s name, blah blah blah. I said, see anyways it’s a patriarchal concept, I have my father’s last name, I don’t have my mother’s name, and I want to be part of your family as well, and he wanted to be a part of mine. So first he said, shall I do Anand Ahuja Kapoor or Anand Kapoor Ahuja? And you do Sonam Kapoor Ahuja? I was like, that’s still my father’s name, no? How will my kids have my name in some way? Then he said, should I keep Sonam in the middle? So I said fine.”
