Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor announce pregnancy; actress says ‘Our baby ….. coming soon’

The actress on Monday shared the happy news of her pregnancy on social media. Sharing a photo from their ultrasound appointment, Alia captioned the photo saying “Our baby ….. coming soon.”

The actress also shared a picture of a lioness nudging a lion and a cub looking on. The couple have shared their love for nature and have been heading out on romantic safaris in Africa. The couple began their New Year 2022 on a safari and shared some goofy clicks from their time in the great outdoors.

The happy news of Alia’s pregnancy comes just over two months after the couple tied the knot in a hush-hush ceremony at their Bandra home. Ranbir and Alia wed in a private ceremony on April 14, surrounded by their family and closest friends.

While the news has come as a surprise to many, it now seems that Ranbir hinted at a baby on its way during his recent ‘Shamshera’ promotions. When quizzed about how much more work he will do post-marriage, he said that he has to make a family and will also have the chance to do lots of work.

“Abhi mujhe bahot kaam karna hai sir. Abhi mujhe family banani hai, unke liye kaam karna hai. Pehle mai khudke liye kaam karraha tha. Nahi nahi, abhi mai bahot kaam karunga,” he said.

On his life after marriage, Ranbir further said, “I used to say in films that ‘shaadi is like dal chaawal till you die and life mein thoda tangdi kebab, hakka noodles hona chahiye (referring to his famous dialouge in Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani)… but boss, zindagi ke tajurbe ke baad I would say dal chaawal he best hai. Alia mere dal chaawal mein tadka hai, achaar hai, pyaaz hai, sab kuch hai. I couldn’t have asked for a better partner.”6

Since tying the knot in April, the couple headed straight to work on their many film projects. Talking to the media, the hunk revealed that he and wife Alia will soon head out for a quiet holiday before they kick off promotions for ‘Brahmastra’.
