Speaking exclusively to The Free Press Journal, Debina shared her perspective on how seemingly casual remarks can affect someone depending on the situation they are going through.

The actress also spoke about the frustration women experience when their efforts to lose postpartum weight are questioned. Sharing her own experience as a mother of two, she said, “Pehle sunke aise gussa aata hai ki I am a mom, delivered two kids. After delivery and you reach a certain age, body waisa react nahi karta hai. Body changes, hormones change.”

She further explained that the ongoing discussions are also encouraging people to understand the circumstances behind such comments. Debina also touched upon the conversation around motherhood after 40 and pregnancy, recalling her own experience with infertility. She said that when she was struggling with infertility, she was unsure whether she would ever have a positive outcome.

According to her, while discussions around pregnancy after 40 should be responsible, they should also take into account the experiences of women who are hoping to become mothers.
