Last Updated:
Second-time mom-to-be Ishita Dutta posted an array of photos from her 'shaadh' ceremony hosted by her family.
Ishita Dutta, known for her stint in Drishyam, is expecting her second child with her actor husband, Vatsal Sheth. The couple, who tied the knot in November 2017, keeps dishing out some family goals with lovely glimpses from their lives. From playful moments with their baby boy, Vaayu, to celebrating each other's achievements, the madly in love duo has been together through thick and thin. Recently, the pregnant actress' family organised a 'shaadh" ceremony for her, and the glimpses from the same are too cute to miss.
On Instagram, Ishita Dutta posted a series of glimpses from the shaadh ceremony hosted by her family during the third trimester of pregnancy. FYI: The 'Shaadh" ceremony is a Bengali baby shower tradition for celebrating the mother-to-be during her 7th or 9th month of pregnancy. Following the same Bengali rituals, the second-time expectant actress was served an array of dishes to honour and fulfil her cravings and desires. We can spot a plate full of rice served alongside two slices of fried fish and five different vegetables, and a few pieces of fresh green salad. Besides the plate, an assortment of lovely items was also present on the same table. It included dal, fish curry, as well as sweet items to relish at the end of her meal, like kheer and two types of rasgullas.
For the intimate ceremony, Ishita donned a comfortable pink-hued attire and looked super enthusiastic while posing for some love-filled pictures with her family. However, it was her baby boy who stole the show with his sheer joy and excitement. Dropping the glimpses, the doting mommy revealed that the true highlight of her event was Vaayu, who was extremely eager to savour the wholesome meal.
'Shaadh, Celebrating the little life within, a bit early this time, because some moments can't wait. Showered with love, blessings, and all things sweet for a safe journey ahead. P.S. Vaayu couldn't wait to dig into all the yummy food – the true highlight for him! #MotherhoodMoments #BengaliRituals #FamilyLove," read Ishita's caption.
Earlier, in a conversation with HT, Vatsal confirmed their 'good news' and revealed his reaction after learning about the same. 'Ishita walked into our room and told me the news. I remember it was one of those days when Vayu was super cranky. We did take time to let the news sink in before we decided to let the world know that the newest member of our family is due in July," the actor said.
Further, opening up about their future plans, he said, 'As parents, we have discussed how to go about it, as the second pregnancy will surely be quite different from the first. As a father, I will take care of my son and my wife, who needs special attention. Both of us have decided that once the baby arrives, I will take care of Vayu, and Ishita will be with our new angel."

Drishyam 3: Mohanlal And Jeethu Joseph Likely To Begin Filming In September 2025
Last Updated: Mohanlal and Jeethu Joseph are reportedly set to start filming Drishyam 3 in September 2025. Malayalam cinema's iconic duo—Mohanlal and director Jeethu Joseph—are ready to bring back the suspense and intrigue of the Drishyam universe. According to a new report by Cinema For You, the third installment of the celebrated thriller franchise is likely to begin production in September 2025, much to the excitement of fans across the country. While speculation had long surrounded their return, the report suggests that Drishyam 3 might finally move ahead—possibly at the cost of delaying their much-anticipated but long-stalled project Ram yet again. With dates aligning and mounting pressure from eager fans, the team seems to be prioritizing the next chapter in Georgekutty's chilling tale of deception and survival. An official confirmation is still awaited, but the buzz has already reignited anticipation among viewers who have followed Georgekutty's journey since the very beginning. For the uninitiated, Drishyam (2013) was a game-changer in Indian cinema. Directed by Jeethu Joseph, the original film followed Georgekutty, a simple cable TV operator, whose life spirals into chaos after a shocking incident involving his family. What followed was a masterclass in suspenseful storytelling, as Georgekutty wove a web of lies to protect his loved ones from law enforcement. The film's gripping narrative, moral ambiguity, and powerful performances struck a chord with audiences, making it a blockbuster and a blueprint for remakes across multiple Indian languages. In 2021, the franchise returned with Drishyam 2: The Resumption, picking up seamlessly from where the first left off. Released directly on Amazon Prime Video due to the pandemic, the sequel was lauded for maintaining the franchise's high standards of storytelling, layered drama, and emotional depth. Mohanlal once again proved why he's considered one of India's finest actors, and Jeethu Joseph's direction was praised for its sophistication and restraint. As the Malayalam original prepares to enter its third and possibly final phase, interestingly, its Bollywood counterpart is also revving up for its next chapter. Actor Ajay Devgn is reportedly set to reprise his role as Vijay Salgaonkar in Drishyam 3, with Abhishek Pathak returning to direct. That film, according to Pinkvilla, will go on floors in August 2025, creating a fascinating parallel between the two cinematic universes. Meanwhile, Mohanlal continues to be one of the busiest stars in the industry. After headlining Thudarum, a hard-hitting crime drama about a father's quest for justice, he is now gearing up for Hridayapoorvam, a feel-good family film helmed by veteran director Sathyan Anthikad and co-starring Malavika Mohanan. His packed slate also includes big-ticket projects like Vrusshabha and MMMN, further cementing his status as a pan-Indian force to reckon with. With Drishyam 3, Mohanlal and Jeethu Joseph have the potential to close the chapter on one of Indian cinema's most iconic franchises with the same finesse and unpredictability that made it a cultural phenomenon in the first place.
