Sidharth Malhotra is beaming with happiness after becoming a father. Earlier this month, he and his wife Kiara Advani welcomed their first child, a baby girl. As a new dad, Sidharth is making sure to start this journey on a spiritual note by seeking blessings for his little one.

A Special Visit with His Mother

On Sunday, Sidharth visited Mumbai’s well-known Siddhivinayak Temple. He wasn’t alone—his mother accompanied him for this sacred visit. Photos and videos posted by paparazzi account Viralbhayani showed the actor dressed simply in casual clothes, with a saffron shawl draped around his neck. At the temple, he prayed to Lord Ganesha for his daughter's protection and good health, along with well-being for the entire family. While Sidharth stepped out for the temple visit, Kiara has kept a low public profile since their daughter’s birth. She has been staying away from cameras to focus on their new chapter as parents.

Couple Shares Joy on Social Media

Sidharth and Kiara shared the happy news with their fans through an Instagram post. The heartwarming announcement read, "Our hearts are full, and our world is forever changed. We are blessed with a baby girl." Their message touched many hearts and led to a flood of congratulations from fans and celebrities alike.

They Ask for Privacy During This Special Time

Following the birth announcement, the couple politely asked the media for privacy. They expressed their gratitude for the love they’ve received but requested space to enjoy the early days of parenthood.

In a public note, they said, "We're so grateful for all the love and wishes; our hearts are truly full. As we take our first steps into this new journey of parenthood, we hope to enjoy it intimately as a family. It would mean a lot to us if this special time could stay private. So, No Photos Please, Only Blessings! Thank you for your support. Love, Kiara & Sidharth."
