Story highlights Award-winning actress, singer writes about being adoptedChenoweth writes she's learned to deal with her own questions about her birth parents(CNN) For Kristin Chenoweth, the movie "Lion" hit very close to home. "It's hardly a secret that I was adopted as a baby, and quite frankly, there's absolutely no reason it should be," Chenoweth writes. "As I've grown, I've watched the conversation and perceptions about adopted kids and families shift, but nothing has quite captured the truth, both the good and the ugly, of adoption like the film 'Lion.'" Sunny Pawar stars as a young boy who gets adopted in the new film 'Lion.' He eventually gets adopted by an Australian couple, played by Nicole Kidman and David Wenham.
