Supriya Sule, a Member of Parliament and the daughter of Indian politician Sharad Pawar, recently spoke about her relationship with her father and what it meant to grow up in a political family.
“My father told my mother that I am happy to marry you, but I have one condition: ‘We will have only one child, be it a girl or a boy’.
My father wanted to adopt, but my mother said no, ‘Let’s try to have one of our own’,” she said on actor Soha Ali Khan’s podcast All About Her.
After she was born, Sule shares that it was her father who underwent the “surgery for family planning”.
“Normally a grandfather would be overjoyed, but he just said ‘Oh’,” she shared, adding that he asked her why she chose to have a second child.
