A heartwarming moment unfolded at the Jamnagar bash recently as Radhika Merchant, in traditional Gujarati attire, took to the stage to congratulate Bollywood superstar Ranveer Singh on the impending arrival of his first child with wife Deepika Padukone. The sweet exchange was captured on video and quickly made rounds on social media.
During Ranveer’s energetic performance on the sixth day of the pre-wedding festivities, Radhika addressed the audience, expressing her joy for the soon-to-be parents. She said, “Thank you so much, Ranveer. Now Ranveer and Deepika’s family is going to grow. Congratulations from our family to yours.” Ranveer, visibly shy yet elated, received the heartfelt wishes with a smile.
This heartfelt moment followed Ranveer’s own announcement on the second day of the bash, where he excitedly declared his impending fatherhood before a captivated audience. Pulling Deepika onto the stage, the couple danced to the tunes of “Gallan Goodiyan” from Ranveer’s film “Dil Dhadakne Do,” further delighting the guests.
Ranveer and Deepika’s presence added grandeur to the Ambani family bash, spanning three days from Friday to Sunday. Following their return to Mumbai on Monday, Ranveer jetted back to Jamnagar on Wednesday for his performance alongside industry stalwarts Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan.
The news of Ranveer and Deepika’s pregnancy was met with widespread joy among their fans after the couple shared the announcement on Instagram. The accompanying image, featuring baby clothes and playful items, revealed Deepika’s expected delivery date in September 2024.
Ranveer and Deepika’s relationship has been a beacon of love and stability in the entertainment industry. The couple, who tied the knot on November 14, 2018, at Lake Como in Italy, met on the sets of Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s “Goliyon Ki Rasleela Ram-Leela.” Their on-screen chemistry transcended to real life as they continued to mesmerize audiences in subsequent Bhansali ventures like “Bajirao Mastani” and “Padmaavat.”
In a related development, businessman Mukesh Ambani’s youngest son, Anant Ambani, is set to exchange vows with industrialist Viren Merchant’s daughter, Radhika Merchant, later this year, adding another chapter to the ongoing saga of high-profile weddings in India’s elite circles.
