baby sister
and is making sure to spend as much time with her as possible. When contacted, he shared, 'Whenever I heard my parents talk about their siblings, or saw my friends with theirs, I used to feel a void.
Now, that emptiness has been filled. Right now, I'm so happy that I can't even put it into words. Every year on
Raksha Bandhan
, my mom used to tie a rakhi on my wrist, but this year, I have a sister to do that. I'm so excited for Raksha Bandhan to come. I've already told my dad that I need more pocket money so I can start saving to buy my first gift for her.'
His father, Naveen, revealed that Gantavya was in tears when he heard about his baby sister.
He shared, 'When the doctor came out of the operation theatre and told us we were blessed with a girl, Gantavya just smiled. I sensed he was holding back something, so I took him aside. When I asked if he was happy, he became so emotional that he started crying tears of joy. I was moved too and couldn't hold back my own tears.'

I'm so grateful that my wish was fulfilled. She's so delicate and overflowing with cuteness. I was hesitant to touch her at first because I'd heard that newborns are prone to infections. But my mom reassured me that since I had sanitised my hands, it was safe.'
He added with a smile, 'Ever since my mom and sister came home, I've been spending a lot of time with them. Like a protective elder brother, I make sure to take extra care of her. I don't let just anyone touch her, and kissing is strictly prohibited (laughs) — only I'm allowed to kiss her.'

An art a lot of artists don't have!' She added, ''Saas bahu' n their impact on Indian masses (how women got a voice in mass India) is well documented by a prestigious Chicago research! But artists who talk of an inclusive world are actually more classist.' Ektaa didn't stop there. Without naming anyone, she wrote, 'We must do away with this 'U can't sit with us we r better' attitude for democracy n fair play! Love n light to all (sic).' What started it all? The entire row began after Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos appeared on Nikhil Kamath's podcast and spoke about launching Netflix in India. Reflecting on the decision, he said he would have done things differently. According to Ted, starting the platform in India with the series 'Sacred Games' may not have been the right move, and something 'more populist' might have worked better. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 오스템 임플란트 받아가세요 임플란터 더 알아보기 Undo Anurag Kashyap lashes out Anurag Kashyap, who directed and produced 'Sacred Games', did not take the comment lightly.

Olivia Munn reveals why she doesn't let her kids watch 'Ms. Rachel'
Picture Credit: X Hollywood actress Olivia Munn is not in favour of letting her kids watch 'Ms. Rachel'. The 'Your Friends & Neighbors' actress, 44, said that she doesn't let her kids Malcolm, 3, and Mei, 8 months, watch the YouTube creator's videos, or most kids' shows in general. Olivia shares her kids with husband John Mulaney , with whom she has been married since almost a year, reports 'People' magazine. She told 'People', "I know kids love (Ms. Rachel), but the thing is, if I can't watch it, I'm not going to spend the rest of my life going crazy. These kid shows drive me crazy". Munn also isn't a big fan of cartoons. "Malcolm asked for Blue's Clues (recently), and I don't know who showed him Blue's Clues, but they are on my s*** list now", Munn said. "I said, 'Hell no. Not in my house'. John got him into the Spider-Man cartoons, which is not interesting to me. I put on Tom Holland's 'Spider-Man: Homecoming' and was like, 'If you want to watch the real-life ones, then we can watch that.' It might be a little too old for him, but I can't take the cartoons". As per 'People', Munn says the only exception is PBS' children's show 'Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood', which she describes as a "great program". by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like [단독] 서울 임플란트 '33만원' 에 가능해 플란치과 Undo Before Mei's arrival via surrogate last September, Munn and Mulaney, 42, let Malcolm watch the show to help him prepare to become a big brother.

When introducing Mei to Malcolm, Munn says she and Mulaney made sure not to "change his world and identity and responsibilities". "A lot of times people will be like, 'Oh, you're a big brother now. You're not the baby anymore. Now you can help mommy get the diapers'. So, all of a sudden, he has all these responsibilities, and he doesn't just get to be carefree anymore", Munn said. "Instead, we would say, 'Now we have two babies. There's baby Mei Mei and baby Malcolm'". Check out our list of the latest Hindi , English , Tamil , Telugu , Malayalam , and Kannada movies .
