Tusshar Kapoor becomes a dad!

Superstar Jeetendra and his wife Shobha have become proud grandparents to Laksshya Tusshar's first son via surrogacy .

The baby, who was sired through IVF and surrogacy, is the first grandchild of the Kapoor khandaan. The actor had always hinted to friends that he would either adopt or have a child through surrogacy before he turned 40.

A statement was released by Tusshar that says, "I am thrilled to be a father! The paternal instincts in me have been overpowering my heart and mind for some time now. Therefore, I am thrilled beyond words to have Laksshya, now the greatest source of joy in my life. By the greatness of God and the excellent medical team at Jaslok, parenthood is an option for many, who choose to be single parents."

Congratulations Tusshar.
