Birth report of SRK’s new baby obtained

Mumbai, Jul 3: After much speculation, BMC has confirmed the receipt of the birth report of a baby boy that was born on May 27, 2013, listing Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Shah Khan as his parents.

The arrival of SRK’s new baby put to rest rumours that have been blazing about the couple’s impending pregnancy with the help of a surrogate mother.

Born at 34 weeks, the little 1.5 kg baby was born at Masrani Hospital for Women in Andheri and later shifted to Nanavati Hospital, Juhu, and finally to Breach Candy Hospital. He is now at home with the Khans.

Earlier reports suggest that the surrogate mother hails from London, but no official details are known of her identity.

Following reports of a pre-natal sex determination test that was allegedly conducted by the Khans, a controversy soon surfaced. The use of sex-determination methods (gender determination) is forbidden according to the Indian Pre-Conception and Pre-Natal Diagnostic Techniques Act.

Equipped with a birth report, BMC officials will investigate the issue further with the help of hospital documentation since the child’s birth.
