Kalki Koechlin reveals she is five months pregnant and is going for water birth

Bollywood actress Kalki Koechlin has come out in open and revealed that she is five months pregnant now. In an interview with HT Brunch, the Sacred Games 2 actress opened up about her first baby with Guy Hershberg, a classical pianist from Jerusalem, Israel. Not many are aware that Kalki was averse to the idea of motherhood, however, post her divorce with Anurag, the actress decided to go back to the idea. "Motherhood began with my brother, who is much younger than I am. I remember watching him come home from school one day, he must have been seven or eight, with a project on climate change and thinking 'this is such a renewal of innocence'. Children take us back to the basics; remind us of what is important. Also, just wanting to experience pregnancy, of feeling this life grow inside you," she said.

Since the baby will be born with multiple nationalities, courtesy of the parents' mixed races. On this Kalki said, "I am aware that these are struggles my child will have to face, and yet I am grateful for the mixture of influences that I have had." Kalki has also decided of a unisex name for her child, and is open to the idea of the baby having gender fluidity. "I've chosen a name that works for either gender and that is representative of a gay person, because I want my child to have that freedom of movement under the many umbrellas of gender that we have," she said.

Talking about the changes, Kalki added, "I already feel the changes in the way I react to things. I am more deliberate, slower, more patient. When motherhood comes eventually, it brings with it a new consciousness to your sense of person. I still want to work but it is less about the rat race and more about nurturing oneself through one's work. It becomes about infusing concentration and energy inward."

Kalki plans to opt for water birth to have a natural delivery.
