Actor-model Lisa Ray speaks to Ruchi Chopda on what motivated her to share her surrogacy story on social media and why the future is female
Some women are just born fighters. And Lisa Ray sure is one of them. The talented actor-model has lived life on her own terms. In fact, she feels that she was independent to a fault. And that is when cancer knocked on her door. The news was so baffling that Ray decided to write a blog to make sense of what was happening to her. It helped, and the support and love she received was overwhelming. And that is what prompted her to share the news of the birth of her twins on the web too. The actor talks about how her concern for the state of our planet has heightened with motherhood, her experience finding a surrogate in India, and the values she hopes to inculcate in her daughters.
You shared your cancer journey online through your blog, and now your motherhood journey on social media. What prompted you to share such personal journeys online?
