Filmmaker Karan Johar, who became the father of twins Roohi and Yash via surrogacy, quips that they are the finest "Dharma productions".
While talking about the experience of parenthood during a book launch here on Thursday, Karan said: "It is daunting, exhilarating and shocking in my case.
It's just everything that I thought it would be and everything that's not.
I still look at them and can't yet believe that they are mine.
"I am just blessed every morning by their presence.
I always say that they are the finest Dharma productions, literally and otherwise. "
Karan and Shahid Kapoor's wife Mira attended the launch of celebrity nutritionist Pooja Makhija's new book "Eat Delete Junior: Child Nutrition for Zero to Fifteen Years".
Talking about the challenges of parenthood in terms of nutrition, Karan said: "I am playing both mother and father in this dynamic, so I have a double role to play and for me, it's even more daunting.
I have told myself that I am not going to be a hysterical, hyper parent because I see so many of them around me and specially leading actresses who become mothers. "
"From leading actresses, they become paranoid parents. "
