The renowned star revealed that during the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020, Mukerji was trying for a second child with husband and filmmaker Aditya Chopra, reported <em>The Indian Express<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Mukerji and Chopra became parents for the first time in 2015 when Mukerji gave birth to their daughter Adira. The Bollywood star revealed that the couple had begun trying for their longed-for second child when Adira was a year old. Facing crushing disappointment year after year, Mukerji spoke of her sadness at feeling too old to have a second child, and the pain that engulfs her knowing that her daughter may never have a sibling.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s difficult,\u201d admitted the <em>Mrs Chatterjee vs Norway<\/em> star. \u201cI tried for a second baby for almost seven years. My daughter is eight years old now, and when she was one or one-and-a-half, I tried for my second, and I kept trying, and I finally got pregnant, and then I lost the baby. Obviously, it was a very, very testing time for me. And also, I\u2019m not very young, though I look young. I\u2019m going to turn 46. It\u2019s not an age where I can have a baby.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>However, Mukerji added that though her ordeal may be acute, her experiences have led her to value her daughter more than ever, whom she lovingly referred to as her \u201cmiracle child\u201d. \u201cIt is traumatic for me that I can\u2019t give a sibling to my daughter, and it really pains me,\u201d she maintained. \u201cBut we have to always be grateful for what we have. For me, Adira is my miracle child, and I\u2019m really happy I have her. I\u2019m working on that, and I\u2019m telling myself that yes, Adira is enough.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mukerji first spoke publicly about her miscarriage at the Indian Film Festival in Melbourne last year, and had previously refrained from discussing it in public during promotions of her latest film out of fear that it would undercut what the movie was trying to achieve. \u201cI didn\u2019t want it to come across as me trying to speak about a personal experience that would propel the film,\u201d she explained.<\/p>\n<p>Once reigning Indian cinema as one of the highest paid actors of Bollywood in the 2000s, Mukerji tied the knot with Chopra in a private ceremony in 2014, a year before becoming a mother to Adira. She has previously gone on record to note that \u201cthe time spent being a mother is the happiest period of my life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Have something to add to the story?
