According to media reports, after Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas welcomed a baby via surrogacy, Taslima Nasreen, a Bangladeshi writer, made an indirect dig at Priyanka and Nick and said how surrogacy was the exploitation of the poor, and preference for readymade babies. The writer took to her Twitter handle and posted a couple of tweets.

Take a look at Taslima’s tweet

How do those mothers feel when they get their readymade babies through surrogacy? Do they have the same feelings for the babies like the mothers who give birth to the babies?

Well, social media platforms did not appreciate Taslima Nasreen referring to babies as readymade. Some pointed out that babies are not products or apparel. On the other hand, some agreed with Taslima. Although, Taslima did not take the name of Priyanka and Nick. The writer said if rich people wanted a kid very badly, they could have adopted one.

Here are some of the comments to her tweet:
