Kareena Kapoor recently released her book titled Kareena Kapoor Khan's Pregnancy Bible covering both her pregnancy journeys. As per a report by Pinkvilla, Saif Ali Khan has written the afterword of the book and shared that he and Kareena had a fleeting thought about surrogacy. He wrote, "Things are pressured for a female actor in our industry. How you look is often everything! When we first began our relationship, she was a size zero, shopping in the kids’ section of stores because those were the only things that would fit her. She was doing super well for herself with work and her appearance played a big part in it."

The actor added, "Pregnancies take their toll on your body; it takes you a while to return to shape. Kareena was worried about these things. When we first talked about having children, she even briefly wondered if she should consider a surrogate. But she then realised that everything in life needs your 100 per cent. Once she had made up her mind, she was all in." In a recent chat with the Guardian, Kareena Kapoor opened up about the criticism she and Saif received for naming their children Taimur and Jehangir. The actor said that the names suited her beautiful boys and that she wants to move past the trolls.
