London: It has been revealed that Pop diva Madonna is all set to adopt a baby from India. At first, Madge, as she is popularly known, planned to adopt a girl from Africa, but discarded the idea due to the frustration that was involved with red tape.

The 49-year-old pop queen has now set her heart on adopting an Indian baby after her New Year holiday in the country. Sources close to her say that the singer would be flying out to choose a baby after she finishes promoting her new album.

Husband Guy Ritchie, 39, is said to have agreed to the plan after they put a string of rows behind them.

Earlier, on the trip to India in January, the couple had been accompanied by their kids 11-year-old Lourdes, 7-year-old Rocco, and adopted a Malawian boy 2-year-old 'David'. The trip also included her meeting with Bollywood choreographer Sandip Soparrkar, who proved a source of encouragement for Madge to adopt. “We spoke about how there are so many children in India who need homes,” The Sun quoted Soparrkar, as saying.

A source revealed, “Madonna was very taken with Sandip. He told her there were orphans who would melt her heart. Guy was against the idea, but when she wants something, she gets it.”
