<p>Kareena Kapoor's firstborn, Taimur Ali Khan, was via Caesarean delivery. In an interview with The Quint, she shared her experience, "I actually had to have a Caesarean delivery because his head was down. He had already turned very fast. So, he was ready to come out, it was very low. I was very hyper. I was getting anxiety during the labour to perform a C-section. I think with women, sometimes you know, it depends because maybe you know you do get like anxiety. Like I would get extra anxious. Maybe I would scream I don’t know, but yeah, maybe a little exaggeration is done. Of course, not denying that."</p>

<p>Last year, in November 2020, Amrita Rao gave birth to his son. In a post-delivery interview with the DNA, Amrita revealed that she had a C-section delivery, as planned. She said, "Yes, with no house help around, we did not even have the maid during the lockdown. So that threw everybody off balance. You have to do things that you were not used to. My family's really stepped in to help. Also, I planned for a C section delivery. So, post that you're not physically strong enough to carry the baby and move around for at least three months, do a lot of things by yourself. So at that time, you really need the help of your husband, in my case, it was Anmol, my mom or his mom because, without that, you can't plan a C section and deliver."</p>

<p>Sameera Reddy's daughter Nyra Varde was delivered via C-section. In a social media post, Sameera had flaunted her swollen tummy after delivering her second child. She captioned it, "As part of my #imperfectlyperfect campaign I promised I’d share my postpartum journey so here goes. It’s really damn hard on the body when it’s a c section because the stitches hurt like mad. Nothing can ready you for the sleepless nights of endless feeding and your body just feels so out of whack it can really get you down. The tummy swelling takes a while to go and this is day 5 post-delivery. I’m thrilled to have my daughter in my arms but I can’t help but feel hormonally challenged because of all the changes. It all bounces back and that’s the silver lining!"</p>
