Respect for this. So many star kids have their entire lives documented online before they can even talk. It should be her choice when she's old enough to understand what social media means. Good parenting move.

I appreciate the sentiment, but isn't it a bit impractical? They're public figures; the media will eventually get a picture. It creates more curiosity. Maybe a middle path would be better—share an occasional photo but keep most of her life private.

As a new mom myself, I totally get this. The pressure to post baby pictures is real, even for regular people. Varun setting this boundary is great. Also, super excited for Border 2! Jai Hind to our brave soldiers. 🇮🇳

Finally, a Bollywood star talking sense about privacy. Our culture sometimes forgets that children have rights too. Let the kid be a kid. On another note, the cast of Border 2 looks solid. Waiting to see this tribute to the 1971 war heroes.

It's their personal choice, and we should respect it. But honestly, I'm more interested in his work. Border 2 sounds like a powerful film. Our history needs to be told, and I'm glad actors like Varun are taking on such projects.
