The duo welcomed their first child, a baby girl, on July 15 and the news has sparked an outpouring of love and congratulatory messages from fans, friends, and celebrities alike.

When Kiara wished her daughter to be like Kareena
Amid the celebrations, an old clip of Kiara from 2019 has resurfaced online. During the promotions of her film Good Newwz, Kiara was asked which qualities of Kareena Kapoor she would want her future daughter to inherit. With admiration, she replied, 'Her confidence, her expressions, her aura — all her qualities. She's a 10 on 10.' Co-star Akshay Kumar added, 'Her radiant face.'
Kareena was among the first to congratulate the new parents. Sharing their announcement post on her Instagram Story, she wrote, 'Congratulations to the lovely couple… God bless your little angel " Good Newwz producer and close friend Karan Johar also posted a heartfelt message: 'Congratulations and love you both so much!!! Best feeling ever and you both will make the best parents to your beautiful baby girl…@sidmalhotra @kiaraaladvani."
On Wednesday, Kiara and Sidharth shared a pink-themed announcement on Instagram, as they wrote, 'Our hearts are full and our world forever changed. We are blessed with a baby girl. – Kiara & Sidharth.' The heartwarming post was accompanied by folded hands , red heart , and evil eye emojis in the caption.
After months of speculation about Kiara's pregnancy, the couple confirmed the news in February this year by sharing a photo of tiny baby booties. Alongside the image, they wrote, 'The greatest gift of our lives. Coming soon.'
Sidharth and Kiara's love story
The couple's love story has been one of quiet charm. They reportedly met in 2018 at a film party, but it was during the filming of Shershaah in 2021 that their bond truly deepened. Their chemistry both on and off screen sparked dating rumours, but they remained tight-lipped for years. It wasn't until 2023 that Kiara confirmed the relationship with a sweet birthday post for Sidharth, followed by their intimate wedding on February 7, 2023, at Suryagarh Palace in Jaisalmer.

Sacha Baron Cohen stuns with six-pack abs, ripped physique for Marvel 's Mephisto, credits Ozempic, not AI for it

Actor Sacha Baron Cohen has stunned fans with his dramatic physical transformation to portray Marvel supervillain Mephisto, revealing he used Ozempic as part of his overhaul. Meanwhile, Marvel Studios chief Kevin Feige has hinted at a significant future for the character in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. According to Sacha Baron Cohen, nothing about the pictures is fake.(Instagram) Sacha Baron Cohen's jaw-dropping transformation On Wednesday, Cohen, 53, shared his Men's Fitness UK cover on Instagram, showing off his chiselled physique in a series of shirtless photos. The series of photos featured the 53-year-old actor posing shirtless, doing pull-ups, and working out with gym equipment, giving fans a glimpse of his transformation for his Marvel role. It was revealed that the actor's transformation is for his onscreen role as Mephisto in Marvel's Disney+ series Ironheart. The transformation has left fans gobsmacked. One asked, 'Is this AI?' with another writing, 'I'm sorry, but thirst trap Borat was not on my 2025 bingo card.' 'And he's 53. Dude looks incredible,' read one comment. One social media user shared, 'Single mode activated' and one wrote 'the only thirst trap I can respect.' 'Revenge body,' one wrote referencing his split from actor Isla Fisher. According to Cohen, nothing about the pictures was fake. 'This is not AI,' he wrote on his Instagram Story while sharing the picture of his cover of Men's Fitness UK. The actor added, 'I really am egotistical enough to do this.' The actor used Ozempic for the transformation. Cohen shared a workout photo showcasing his toned back, revealing that he used Ozempic as part of his regimen to achieve his new physique. He said, 'Some celebs use Ozempic, some use private chefs, others use personal trainers. I did all three." Cohen poked fun at his transformation on Instagram Stories, joking that he is "hard launching my mid-life crisis" and "debuting my new character: middle-aged man who replaced beer with protein shakes" as he shared photos from his Men's Fitness UK cover shoot. In the captions to those photos, he also thanked personal trainer Alfonso Moretti "for doing the unthinkable — putting up with me for 25 mins a day." According to Deadline, Cohen reached out to Matthew McConaughey to find a trainer, who suggested Moretti. In their first Zoom call, Moretti made Cohen strip down to his underwear, and planned disciplined and consistent regie which included 100 pushups per day. Mephisto's future in MCU Cohen was seen in the role of Mephisto in Ironheart's season finale on July 1. The appearance marked his second live-action acting role since he released Borat Subsequent Moviefilm in 2020. Marvel Studios executive Kevin Feige recently told reporters at a press conference that Cohen will reprise his role as Mephisto in future MCU projects. However, he did not specify what projects or when they may release, as per Gamesradar+. "He's another character that, pre-MCU, would have been hard to do. He's a devil. How do you do that character? But he's a formative character. He was a big part of Thanos' storyline in the comics. So again, now that he's here, the potential is clear,' Feige said.
