Bollywood’s power couple Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh broke the internet once again but this time not with a film drop, but with a heartwarming family moment. The couple shared their first-ever picture with their newborn baby girl, Dua and fans can’t seem to get enough.
The couple posted a warm Diwali-themed photo, showing Deepika dressed in a red suit set, perfectly accessorised with kundan jewellery and gajra in her hair. Ranveer on the other hand wore an off-white kurta paired with a matching pearl necklace and tinted shades. The post showed Deepika holding Dua in her arms, and Ranveer holding them gently in a protective yet gentle manner. The pair was beaming with love and the post quickly turned into a viral sensation, gathering millions of likes and an outpour of emotional comments within hours.
Within minutes of posting, social media erupted with love and blessings. “This picture radiates peace and pure happiness,” wrote one user, while another said, "The new Parle G girl." A third person commented, “this little girl gonna break INTERNET".
Several fans called it the “best Diwali surprise ever.” The couple, who tied the knot in 2018, had kept their pregnancy journey private, making this reveal even more special for their followers.

The post didn’t just win over fans of the duo but the whole Bollywood also joined the celebration. Alia Bhatt, Priyanka Chopra, Katrina Kaif, Jay Shetty, Karan Johar and more dropped congratulatory comments with heart emojis, while designer Sabyasachi shared the picture on his story.
