Actors Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor are now parents to a baby girl. They confirmed the news on social media minutes after it was broken by Ranbir's sister Riddhima Kapoor over the weekend. In an Instagram post and on Stories shared on Alia's account and signed by both the parents, they called it the "best news of our lives."
Alia shared a picture of a lion and lioness with a little cub, cuddling together. She also wrote, "And in the best news of our lives: Our baby is here and what a magical girl she is. We are officially bursting with love - blessed and obsessed PARENTS!!!!!" The note was signed with 'love love love' by both parents.
Alia was admitted to the Reliance Hospital in Mumbai. Ranbir was by her side as they arrived at the hospital in their cars. Their family, led by Alia's mother, Soni Razdan and Ranbir's mother, Neetu Kapoor, reached the hospital soon after. While several news reports confirmed it was a baby girl before the family announced it, Riddhima was the one to confirm it.
Alia and Ranbir tied the knot in April after dating for almost five years. They began dating while working together on the film 'Brahmastra', released in September. Alia caught everyone by surprise when she announced her pregnancy earlier in June.
