Earlier, in an interview with ETimes, Bipasha Basu had opened up about the beautiful phase of her life and shared that she believes it was the right time for her and her hubby, Karan Singh Grover, to have a baby. She had further revealed that she and Karan have always hoped for a baby girl, and they have started calling their baby 'she'. Talking about the same, the mommy-to-be had said:
"Karan and I were clear from the beginning that we wanted a baby. I don’t have any thoughts on why it is so late or why it took time. For me, this is the right time. I believe this is when we were supposed to have our baby. We believe in manifestation. From the time we have wanted a child, we have hoped for a baby girl. I know a baby is a beautiful gift, and we are supposed to be in acceptance of any gender, and the bigger picture is that, but we call our baby ‘she’. We believe it’s a she, and we have believed that since the time we decided to have a baby."
