Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan's darling daughter Suhana Khan took the first steps into showbiz by making her debut on a magazine. The star-daughter graced the cover of Vogue India magazine's August issue. The cover was unveiled by Shah Rukh himself at a star studded event in Mumbai. Suhana had to face massive backlash as her magazine cover once again flared up the (in)famous nepotism debate with trolls posing a question mark on her achievements among others. The official Instagram page of the magazine even had to disable the comments on her pictures to avoid the negativity to reach the star-kid. 

While both Shah Rukh and Gauri have still not reacted to it, their good friend Kajol has opened up on the massive flak that came towards Suhana soon after her magazine cover was unveiled earlier this month. In her recent interview with Film Companion, when noted film critic Anupama Chopra asked her about showbiz parenting with reference to the entire fiasco around Suhana's magazine cover debut, and how does one protect their kids, Kajol said, "I think all you can do honestly is to sure them up, with your love, your support, and hope and pray that all the parenting that youé done before that, takes effect."

She further said, "All the stuff you've said to them about the ego and about who you are that matters more than what you look like or a collection of features or anything like that. I think that's the only thing that you can hope and pray, works for them as people. And that's something that is so scary as a parent."

Speaking about Shah Rukh and Gauri's decision of being supportive of Suhana's magazine cover debut, she added, "You know, it takes a lot of courage, you know hats off to Gauri and Shah Rukh for that matter to even allow Suhana to go out there. I wouldn't say 'allow', I know that is the wrong word...as parents you always want to protect your children and you know for a fact that as a star and a celebrity, things will always be much more tougher for your children because they will be judged by you. Especially if you are a success."

"If you were a failure, probably they will be judged with a little bit more sympathy and a little more 'oh so sweet'. But when you are a success, it's always tougher for them and will always be tougher for them. In whichever arena they are, not only in the film industry. They will be watched. Whatever they choose to do with it. It's a tough decision for both Shah Rukh and Gauri, a very brave decision on their part to let Suhana come into this world," she concluded. 

Kajol will soon be seen in her upcoming Pradeep Sarakr directorial - Helicopter Eela. The actress will be seen playing a single mother to a teenaged son - played by Riddhi Sen. The movie is to hit the theatres on September 7.
