Sonam Kapoor Ahuja and Anand Ahuja welcomed a baby boy on Saturday morning (August 20). The actress announced the arrival of the little one with a super adorable video along with a note. The news was first confirmed by Sonam's father Anil Kapoor's close friend Neetu Kapoor on social media. Later, Sonam shared the news with all her fans and followers on Instagram.
In a recent interview with a leading magazine, the actress was asked about sharing parental duties with her husband Anand. The actress recalled how her parents shared the responsibility when it came to bringing up 3 kids. She said, "I remember my mother sending me to the set of Roop Ki Rani Choron Ka Raja (1993) so that my father could look after me because she was handling my brother and sister who were very young at the time. Despite having ample help, their motto was equal parenting. Even after we grew up, Dad was very involved in all of our lives; in fact, after a certain age, he was more invested in our lives than Mum was."
She was asked how on social media, she touched upon how Anand will take paternity leave when the baby arrives and the two of them will be a tag team when it comes to parenting. On sharing the responsibility with Anand, Sonam replied saying, “Definitely. I think more than Anand, it comes from watching the way Dad and Mum brought us up. My parents are partners in every sense of the word, so I have a solid blueprint on how to bring up my children with the right values."
Sonam and Anand tied the knot on May 8, 2018, in a traditional Anand Karaj ceremony. In March 2022, the couple announced that they are expecting their first child together.
