Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh are on the brink of having their second child, and this announcement by the Bollywood couple triggered a wave of excitement among fans. On Sunday, the announcement was delivered with a joint social media release, which immediately went viral on social media.
The family has a heartwarming photo of the couple with their daughter Dua, who was born in September 2024, holding a pregnancy test kit. Deepika, without a detailed caption, merely included two evil eye emojis, a common gesture to keep off bad things, and allowed the image to speak volumes.
Social media reacts to subtle announcement
In minutes after the post was posted, fans and celebrities rushed to the comment section congratulating them. The most notable moment was the photo of little Dua with so many referring to it as one of the cutest pregnancy announcements in the recent past.
The couple, who tend to maintain their personal life relatively private, despite being celebrities, again opted to convey the news through a minimal, but meaningful manner.
A friendship that started on movie sets and ended up as a family
The life of Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh started in 2013 when the actors were filming the movie Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela. The two were dating many years and in 2015, they privately got engaged and then got married in November 2018 in Lake Como, Italy.
Their marriage was greatly celebrated, which incorporated Konkani and Sindhi culture, in terms of their family origin.
With the birth of their first child, Dua, in September 2024, they entered a new period in their lives, which they both actors have openly stated was transformative.
Deepika about motherhood and new priorities
In the last year, Deepika has talked about how having a child has changed her perspective. She wrote in a 2025 public appearance that it was a life changing experience and she no longer felt that her ambition was personal, but instead she was looking after her child.
She has also said that she would like to give her daughter a grounded up-bringing, without all the attention. The actor says that she is more present and appreciative of everyday moments now that she is a parent.
And what will become of the couple?
At work, the two actors are not idle despite having a family. Ranveer Singh is also basking in the glory of his recent film Dhurandhar 2 that is still doing well at the box-office.
Deepika Padukone, in turn, has a hectic schedule of projects. She will feature with Shah Rukh Khan in King and will also have a huge role in a big movie with Allu Arjun.
As the couple is about to have a second child, their recent announcement has once again placed them in the limelight but this time on a far more personal, joyful occasion.
