Bollywood’s much-loved couple, Kiara Advani and Sidharth Malhotra, have stepped into a new chapter of their lives: parenthood. The duo welcomed a baby girl, making the announcement on Wednesday through a warm and emotional post on Instagram.
“Our hearts are full and our world forever changed. We are blessed with a baby girl,” the couple shared in a joint post.
Messages of joy poured in from all corners of the industry. Filmmaker Siddharth P Malhotra was among the first to extend his wishes, commenting, “Many many many congratulations.”
Actor Shaheen Bhatt chimed in with a cheerful, “Yay! Congratulations,” while celebrity designer Manish Malhotra sent his love through pink heart emojis.
Athiya Shetty kept it simple but sweet, dropping a heart emoji under the couple’s post.
Fans, too, were quick to celebrate the news. Comments like “Omggg SidKiara congratulations you two! You are gonna be great parents, my heart is so full,” and “You guys are going to be the bestest parents,” flooded their timeline.

The couple had first shared news of their pregnancy back in February with a tender Instagram post featuring tiny white knitted baby socks. The caption read, “The greatest gift of our lives.”
Since then, Kiara and Sidharth chose to keep things private, stepping away from the media spotlight and making only a handful of public appearances.
Their love story is no secret to Bollywood fans. Sparks first flew between Kiara and Sidharth during the filming of their 2021 war drama ‘Shershaah’, where Sidharth played Captain Vikram Batra and Kiara portrayed Dimple Cheema.
What started as on-screen chemistry soon blossomed into real-life romance.
The couple tied the knot in a grand-yet-intimate ceremony in Rajasthan in February 2023, attended by close family and a few industry friends.
Kiara’s pregnancy became public when she proudly revealed her baby bump during her debut appearance at the Met Gala in 2025. For the occasion, she wore a custom ensemble by Gaurav Gupta, a flowing couture creation that blended traditional Indian craftsmanship with modern high fashion.
Even as they embrace parenthood, both stars are keeping their professional lives active. Kiara is going to appear in ‘War 2’, directed by Ayan Mukerji. The film features a stellar lineup including Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR, and is part of YRF’s growing spy universe.
Sidharth, meanwhile, is preparing for his role in ‘Param Sundari’, where he stars opposite Janhvi Kapoor.
