Dia Mirza

Actress Dia Mirza does her bit for the society without making noise about it. Her scope of work expands across various spheres and thus broadens her thought process. Of late, she has been constantly thinking about adopting a child.

 “This has been a recurring thought, and I have been discussing and thinking about it for a while. Procreation is such a natural human process, yet see the population density on the planet, and you are forced to question whether we need to procreate,” Dia says in a matter of fact tone.

 “It’s a serious dialogue we’ve engaged in, but honestly, we haven’t arrived at any conclusion. But we would like to adopt children. There’s no uncertainty about that.”

 Talking about the adoption debate, the actress adds, “The big question is should we be having a child of our own? Won’t we be adding to the exploding population? An adopted child can nurture the maternal instinct, but then you can’t fight nature right? So many questions between the head and the heart,  but I am sure we will arrive at a conclusion because I want to.”
