Soon after they announced the news, fans and friends from the industry showered them with immense love. Varun Dhawan and Ali Fazal welcomed Rajkummar into the ‘girl dad’ club. Bharti, Neha Dhupia, Nimrat Kaur, Vaani Kapoor and others also sent their heartfelt congratulations.
Rajkummar and Patralekhaa first worked together in the 2014 film CityLights. Their on-set connection soon blossomed into a real-life romance, and the two eventually began dating. They tied the knot in November 2021 and have now welcomed a new addition to their family.
Bollywood’s much-loved duo had earlier revealed on July 9 this year that they were expecting their first child. Their announcement featured a simple yet adorable illustration of a baby cradle surrounded by delicate floral motifs, with the words “Baby on the way” written above it. The image was signed with their names: Patralekhaa & Rajkummar.
During his 2023 appearance on Shehnaaz Gill’s chat show to promote Monica O My Darling, Rajkummar Rao was asked about his plans for starting a family. At the time, he shared that he and Patralekhaa weren’t thinking about having a child just yet. However, he added a sweet remark, saying that if he ever had a daughter, he hoped she would be like Shehnaaz, kind, uncomplicated, beautiful and talented.
