Indian actress Daisy Shah recently shared candid insights about marriage, motherhood, and family planning in an interview with Filmygyan. At 41, she emphasized her belief that marriage is not a prerequisite for starting a family and discussed her decision to freeze her eggs to maintain flexibility for future parenthood.

Independence and Family Planning

Shah clarified that she values personal choice and independence when it comes to family planning. By freezing her eggs, she has created the freedom to decide when she feels ready for motherhood, without being constrained by societal expectations.

She stressed that marriage is not mandatory for having children, stating, “You don’t need to get married to have a family.” This move reflects her commitment to self-sufficiency and proactive planning, similar to practices adopted by peers such as Priyanka Chopra.

Balancing Love and Financial Stability

When asked to weigh love against financial security, Shah expressed a desire for both, noting that an ideal relationship combines emotional connection with stability. She prefers a partner who is independent and financially established, highlighting the importance of mutual self-sufficiency in a relationship. Her perspective underscores a modern approach to partnerships where equality and capability are valued.

Views on Marriage

Daisy candidly discussed her perspective on marriage, acknowledging that reports of troubled relationships and high-profile breakups have influenced her thinking. She remarked, “Every day there’s something happening – couples breaking up or those shocking ‘blue drum’ cases.

It’s very scary.” While she has not devoted extensive thought to marriage herself, she stated that any future decision is “left to the Almighty,” reflecting her preference for leaving major life choices to fate rather than societal pressure.

Motherhood on Her Own Terms

Shah reiterated that her choice to freeze eggs is about maintaining control over her life and family decisions. She emphasized that women can pursue motherhood independently without waiting for marriage. Observing societal dynamics, she noted that some men struggle to engage with “strong, self-assured women,” which further reinforces her focus on autonomy and self-reliance.

Career and Future Plans

Professionally, Daisy Shah was last seen in the web series Red Room and will next appear in a film directed by Palaash Muchhal, co-starring Shreyas Talpade. While she does not have immediate plans for motherhood, her decision to freeze eggs ensures she has the freedom to pursue both her career and personal life without compromise.
