Announcing the birth of their son through a post on Instagram, the couple released a sweet note which stated, “He's finally here! Our baby boy. And we literally can't remember life before! Arms full, our hearts are fuller. First, we had each other; now, we have everything.”
Bollywood's iconic and favourite couple Kiara Advani and Sidharth Malhotra, who tied the knot in February 2023, became proud parents to a baby girl on July 15 this year. Days before the festival, the couple were spotted with their newborn in Mumbai.
Mubarakan actress Athiya Shetty and cricketer KL Rahul welcomed their first child — a baby girl — on March 24 this year, almost two years after their marriage. The couple, who tied the knot in January 2023, named their daughter Evaarah. Even though KL Rahul is preoccupied with the ongoing India-Australia test match series but this Diwali is definitely special for him.
Actor-producer Arbaaz Khan and his wife Sshura Khan also joined the list of Bollywood’s newest parents this year. The couple welcomed a baby girl in early October 2025.
