Ileana D'Cruz against paparazzi pics for sons

Ileana was asked about getting photographed by the paparazzi in India. "It would definitely have been hard for me to be photographed with my babies. It would just be incredibly confusing for them. And it's not fair to them because they wouldn't understand what is going on. I would not be okay with it," Ileana said.

She added, "But I've had a good relationship with the paps in Bombay, and every time I have told them, 'Listen, I'm not comfortable, please don't take a picture.' They've actually respected my wishes. So if it were to come to that, I think they would understand not to take pictures of the babies."
