Is it so unusual for someone to be a father at 50 that memes based on Badhaai Ho are being circulated with gleeful wickedness?
Badhaai Ho, for those who came in late was the sleeper hit of 2019 about a man on the verge of retirement and his homemaker wife, announcing their parenthood at an age when they should not be thinking about procreation. Well, Saif and Kareena are.And what is wrong with that? The one biggest impediment to late parenthood is the child’s financial security. I don’t think Saif and Kareena’s children, even the unborn one, need to worry about where the next meal, or the vacation in the Alps, is coming from.
I must say I find it strange that Saif’s late parenthood is a matter of memes whereas for Sanjay Dutt and Akshay Kumar the same defiance of the mythical biological clock was greeted with only positivity.
The important thing is not the age at which a couple has child but how prepared are they for the responsibility. Kareena and Saif are ready to take the plunge again. All I can say is, badhaai ho!And why mar their happiness with unnecessary bitching ?
