Dia Mirza recently shared her thoughts on the topic and said that it is a personal choice of an individual. I feel when it comes to personal choice and the power of personal choice, it can only be celebrated by those who ensure they make personal choices, not threatened, not afraid of making the choice that you need to as an individual. And while there may be many people with regressive thoughts on things like premarital sex or premarital pregnancy or any other things for that matter, there are enough people who recognise the fact that it is a personal choice, that people have the right to do if they choose to. I don’t think we are as progressive as we imagine or as we consider ourselves to be, Dia told TOI.

Ayushmann Khurrana

In an interview with Mid-Day, Ayushmann had said during the promotions of Shubh Mangal Saavdhan, I endorse pre-marital sex. In our society, we encourage arranged marriage. Marriage is an important aspect of one's life. It's always good to test the waters before jumping in. What will the couple do if there's a problem they learn about after getting hitched? In our film, the lead protagonists are in love, and support each other. But, that might not always be the case.

Anurag Kashyap

In a Father’s Day special video, when Aaliyah Kashyap asked her father Anurag Kashyap how would he react if she told him she was pregnant, he replied, I will ask you, ‘Are you sure you want this?’ And whatever you choose to do, I will always go with it, you know that. I will accept it. Whatever choices you make, I will accept it. I would absolutely tell you that there is a price to pay for it but at the end of it, I will still be there.”

Parineeti Chopra

During the promotions of Shuddh Desi Romance, Parineeti Chopra had strong opinions about live-in relationships and pre-marital sex. There is nothing to believe in it. I don’t think live-in relationships are very different from marriage. I think today live-in relationships are more out of practicality. Even those who are not living in have pre-marital sex. If one does the same thing under one roof why is it different? When asked about pre-marital sex, she told Rediff, Nothing. You just have sex when you want to have it; it is nothing to do with pre-marital. If you find a person you love and you feel it is right for you, you do it or if you feel it is wrong, and you want to wait for a husband, then that is okay for you.
