The special meaning behind Alankrita's name
Prithviraj Sukumaran has often been questioned for naming his daughter Alankrita Menon Prithviraj, as many wondered why his wife’s surname came before his own. In a past interview, he addressed the same and clarified his stance. He explained that he wanted his daughter to carry her mother’s name before his and that "Menon" was merely a name without any connection to caste, religion, or personal beliefs.
In his words, "I would like my child to have her mother’s name..even before mine. So, reiterating once again, MENON for me is JUST a name and has no significance whatsoever with respect to caste, religion, or beliefs."
Meanwhile, fans are eager to see what Alankrita will pursue in the future. Stay tuned to Pinkvilla for more updates.
