Bollywood actress and now a cancer crusader, Manisha Koirala has decided to adopt a baby girl next year. "After my ovarian cancer was cured, I was advised to give it three years before my body would be considered safe from the disease. Those three years would be completed next year. That's when I'll feel confident enough to take care of a new life. That's when I'll officially adopt a child," she said.

When prodded if she desired a life partner, Manisha said, "I've always fallen in love with the wrong people. I've ended being hurt, but have never been disillusioned by love. I still look for love. I still crave to be in a perfect relationship, though I know it may not be possible to find it. I now long to find that perfect love in my relationship with my child."

"I am now looking forward to some good work, a stress-free life and maybe the right life partner one day. Meanwhile, I'm now getting ready to bring my child home. I feel she would complete me in the way no other person can," she added.
