Actor Neha Dhupia recently reflected on the backlash she faced for becoming pregnant before marriage. Recalling how people questioned her daughters birth just six months after her wedding to Angad Bedi, she said the chatter was unnecessary and unfair. Dhupia compared her experience to that of Neena Gupta and Alia Bhatt, who also faced similar scrutiny. The criticism, she revealed, inspired her to launch Freedom to Feed, a platform encouraging open discussions on pregnancy, breastfeeding, and womens health.
