Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh Announce Pregnancy: Bollywood Celebrities Extend Congratulations
After weeks of speculation, Bollywood power couple Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh have officially confirmed that they are expecting their first child together. The actors took to their Instagram handles to share a heartwarming announcement, revealing that their baby is due to arrive in September this year.
Speculation had been rife about Deepika’s pregnancy, particularly after her appearance at the BAFTA awards where she strategically concealed her midriff. The couple, however, had maintained silence until now.
Congratulations and warm wishes flooded the comments section of their announcement post, with Bollywood celebrities expressing joy and excitement for the expecting parents. Singer Shreya Ghoshal, Kriti Sanon, Vikrant Massey, Sonakshi Sinha, Sonam Kapoor, Rakul Preet Singh, Ayushmann Khurrana, Bhumi Pednekar, and Shehnaaz Gill were among those who congratulated the couple.
Deepika, who had previously expressed her love for children, stated in an interview, “In this industry, it’s easy to get carried away by fame and money. But no one treats me like a celebrity at home. I am a daughter and a sister first. I don’t want that to change. My family keeps me grounded, and Ranveer and I hope to inculcate the same values in our children.”
Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh, who dated for six years, tied the knot on November 14, 2018, at Lake Como in Italy. They first met on the sets of Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s film ‘Goliyon Ki Rasleela Ram-Leela’ and have since collaborated on multiple projects, including ‘Finding Fanny,’ ‘Padmaavat,’ and ‘Bajirao Mastani.’ The couple celebrated their fifth wedding anniversary in Belgium last year.
