Manoj Tiwari To Prakash Raj: Indian Actors Who Had Kids After 50

Fatherhood marks the beginning of a responsible and evolving phase in a man's life where his life alters as per the needs of his children and his family. While society finds it ideal for people to have children in their middle age, there have been celebrities who did not follow these customs.

Society often tells young people to get married and have kids at the earliest. They tell them how difficult it would be to raise a child if they are old and judge people who have kids much later in life. These stereotypes bound people with responsibilities that are actually their personal choices which they are not allowed to access. Setting an example for such people and proving that parenthood does not have any age, here are five actors who became fathers after 50.
