Women's Day: Why Chahatt Khanna gave daughter Zohar surnames of both the parents? Powerful Message!

'Bade Achhe Lagte Hain' actress Chahatt Khanna who recently became a Mommy to princess Zohar Khanna Mirza has given a really powerful and strong message to Women this Women's Day. Chahatt added the surnames of both the parents, her 'Khanna' and husband Farhan Mirza's 'Mirza' to her daughter's name 'Zohar'. Also, post her wedding she had replaced her surname with husband's but later changed it back to her maiden name.

Chahatt has now opened up on this occasion to explain to the ladies what went in her mind that she chose to take this step and in simple words she tells Tellychakkar, "After giving birth to a daughter, I realized that a baby is ‘blood and flesh’ of mother and not father. It is the mother’s blood that passes on to the child throughout the nine months when the kid grows in the womb. When it comes out, it has a combination blood group of both parents. After going through a practical realization, I changed my surname from Mirza to Khanna; I am and will always be my parents’ child, and not my husband’s. And now, I want Zohar to take this legacy forward. I see no reason for women to change their last name after marriage. ".

Here’s what B-town has to say on International Women’s Day! To prove  her point further, she even mentions the interesting idea she had of adding both her parents' surnames to her's too post marriage but why it didn't happen! She says further, "I am not being a hypocrite here when I say this. Both my mom and dad have the surname Khanna. If it was different, I would have added my mother’s surname too in my name (smiles). When it is the woman who gives birth and actually takes the generation forward, why do people want to have it the other way around?” We totally agree Chahatt! Are you listening ladies?
