Actors Kiara Advani and Sidharth Malhotra are set to become parents for the second time, the couple announced on Wednesday with a joint social media post captioned "blessed once again".
"Our hearts are full of love," the couple said in their announcement, which drew a flood of congratulatory messages from fans and industry colleagues.
The couple already have a daughter, Saraayah, who was born in 2025. The news of the second pregnancy comes months after the pair publicly shared moments of their journey into parenthood.
A much-loved pairing
Kiara Advani and Sidharth Malhotra are among Bollywood's most followed celebrity couples, and their family announcements routinely trend across social media. The pregnancy reveal on Wednesday was reported within hours by multiple entertainment outlets, with NDTV, Bollywood Hungama and The Indian Express all carrying the story on October 7.
Industry watchers noted that the announcement also landed on a busy day for Bollywood headlines: the Income Tax department's searches at the Mumbai offices of Ramayana producer Prime Focus — whose shares fell 8% on the news — and the Delhi High Court's notice to Salman Khan in the 'Kala Hiran' case were also among the day's major entertainment stories.
Fans flooded the comments section of the couple's announcement post with good wishes, and congratulatory messages poured in from co-stars and contemporaries. The story was among the most-read entertainment items of the morning, with The Indian Express carrying the news at 11:25 IST, NDTV at 11:23 IST and Bollywood Hungama at 11:06 IST on Wednesday.
