Kiara Advani Discharged From Hospital After Welcoming Baby Girl With Sidharth Malhotra
Kiara Advani and Sidharth Malhotra welcomed a baby girl on July 15. The new mother has been discharged from the hospital and she is now heading home with her husband and baby girl.
Kiara Advani and Sidharth Malhotra, who welcomed a baby girl on July 15, have left the hospital and are now heading towards their home. On July 16, the couple posted a joint note on Instagram, announcing the arrival of their daughter. It was met with heartfelt messages from celebrities such as Alia Bhatt and Karan Johar, as well as fans.
New parents Kiara and Sidharth have requested privacy as they navigate their new life as parents. The duo, on July 18, have left for their home. Though their faces couldn't be visible, photos of their car en route home have been going viral on the internet. Take a look:
On Friday, the couple released a joint statement asking everyone to refrain from taking pictures of their newborn in the upcoming months. The statement expressed their gratitude for all the love and wishes, saying, 'Our hearts are truly full." It continued, 'As we embark on this new journey of parenthood, we wish to enjoy it intimately as a family. It would mean a lot to us if this special time could remain private."
Sidharth and Kiara clarified that they will currently adhere to a no-photo policy for their daughter. They stated, 'No photos please, only blessings," and thanked everyone for their love and support.
The same day, Kiara and Sidharth sent pastel pink boxes of sweets to the paparazzi, requesting them to respect their privacy. In a video shared by celebrity photographer Sneh Zala, pink boxes decorated with heart-shaped balloons were seen. A sweet note on the box read: 'Our Baby Girl Is Here. Just a little something sweet to celebrate this special moment. No pictures please, only blessings, Kiara & Sidharth."
Sidharth and Kiara's love story
Sidharth Malhotra and Kiara Advani's love story began on a quiet note. They first crossed paths at a film party in 2018, but it was during the filming of Shershaah in 2021 that their bond truly blossomed. Their sparkling on-screen chemistry sparked dating rumours, though the two chose to keep their relationship private. Over time, however, fans started noticing subtle clues – from a New Year getaway to South Africa to adorable birthday wishes on Instagram. In early 2023, Kiara made things official with a cheeky birthday post for Sidharth, and just weeks later, on February 7, the couple tied the knot in a beautiful, intimate ceremony at Suryagarh Palace in Jaisalmer. ' Ab humari permanent booking hogayi ha (We have been permanently booked)," they wrote in a joint wedding post on Instagram.

Shilpa Shirodkar Says She's 10th Fail, Quit Films For ‘Double MBA' Husband
Last Updated: Shilpa revealed that her decision to leave Mumbai came easily after meeting her husband. Actor Shilpa Shirodkar, who starred in hits like Hum, Aankhen, and Khuda Gawah, has opened up about walking away from a flourishing Bollywood career to live a quiet life abroad. In a recent interview, Shilpa Shirodkar shared how marrying Aparesh Ranjit — a banker and double MBA — changed the course of her life. She moved to New Zealand after marriage and has never regretted the decision. 'I don't regret taking a break. I miss being busy, but I married such a sweet, nice and simple man and that was important for me to start my life," she told Pinkvilla. 'Unfortunately, I left India and which is why it was difficult for me to continue working." Shilpa revealed that her decision to leave Mumbai came easily after meeting her husband. 'I never wanted to leave Mumbai as I was very close to my parents, but then I met my husband and within one and a half day, I said yes to him," she said. 'He was going to go abroad to study… I just liked his honesty so much that I didn't even think what am I doing." The actor also touched upon the stark difference in their educational backgrounds. 'I am a 10th fail. My husband is a banker. He is a double MBA and very well-read. I never felt small in front of him," she stated. 'I can talk to him and his colleagues about everything." On whether she received film offers after marriage, Shilpa said, 'It wasn't the space when women would get roles after marriage… I wasn't such a big star. People were happy ki gayi toh gayi." She added that moving abroad without friends, living on a budget, and building a new life helped shape her. Shilpa returned to Indian TV years later but remains content with the choices she made. view comments First Published: July 22, 2025, 04:30 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
