Somy Ali: I Will Name My Adopted Daughter Malala Ali from an Indian Village

Mumbai, Jan 8 (NationPress) It appears that former actress Somy Ali is feeling the call of motherhood, as she plans to adopt a little girl from a village in India.

Reflecting on her reasons for never settling down or having children, Somy explained that initially it stemmed from a chaotic obsession rooted in a “nonsensical teenage crush”.

Eventually, when it became a reality, it was her subconscious that envisioned her mother’s life, clinging to a drug called hope arising from a family history of heroin. This led to her realization of the harsh “reality” that had been fed to her over the years, understanding that every fairytale has a limited lifespan, akin to the death of Bulund, which serves as a metaphor for such stories.

She added: “Between the ages of 16 and 24, if you observe the naked brain, there’s a significant transformation in its activity, even when it is lifeless in a lab.” After returning to Miami, she immersed herself in education, earning numerous degrees, including one that allows her to analyze her own missteps.

“If these were not mistakes or accidents, why do we label them as such? The inception of the best thing that ever occurred in my life was No More Tears. From 2006 to 2025, we have saved 50,438 lives from actual death, both domestically and internationally. This led to numerous accolades, which I tend to disregard as my work speaks louder than any awards. My mother insists we keep them because “you didn’t marry your Madan, my father.”

She expressed that her organization became her lifeblood and her purpose after absorbing those words.

“If I am strong enough one day, I envision baby Malala playing with baby Ram and baby Tom.”

When asked if she intends to adopt a boy or girl, she stated: “An infant from my second home, India.” She reminisced about her time there from 1990 to 1998, referring to it as Bombay, and shared that her grandparents and father were born there.

“They were all Hindu, as was my dad, until a completely unnecessary and cruel division led to countless murders, a tragedy resulting from the British departing India, Pakistan, and Kashmir, all once considered heaven on earth, now left in chaos with many lives lost as if it were a metaphorical exhibition of what is yet to come.”

“A fence barely stands, reliant on oblivious teenage boys for support.”

“What purpose does a border serve? To keep us apart while we enjoy cricket, share the same food, and my mother, whose roots trace back to Iraq, grew up in Pakistan admiring Amitji, Rekha Ji, Kaka ji, while my father, a filmmaker, introduced stars like Javed Shaikh, who later appeared in Om Shanti Om.

“If this isn’t a sign, then one must be rather oblivious, as evidenced by Fawad and Mahira Khan thriving in Hindi cinema and embraced by many.”

She emphasized that talent and artistry do not recognize borders, nor does music, as it is “color blind.”

“Indeed, my baby girl will hail from a village in India and be named Malala Ali. Malala will watch Hindi films and develop a crush on Aryan’s son.”

“I possess the confidence to instigate a complete 180 not just geographically, but to reveal that it is not the civilians who propagate hate, rather the politicians from Putin to many others globally. However, we have remarkable examples like the late Mandela and the ever-evolving Sonu Sood, whom I refer to as the fixers for all that is bent and broken.”
