Mumbai, August 28, 2025 : Bollywood couple Kiara Advani and Sidharth Malhotra welcomed their first child, a baby girl, on 15 July 2025, marking a new chapter in their personal lives. The couple shared candid insights about parenthood on The Great Indian Kapil Show on Netflix, with Sidharth humorously calling himself the “supporting actor” in his daughter’s life.

Speaking about his new responsibilities, Sidharth said, “Arey pura schedule change ho gaya, abhi main waheen se aa raha hoon subeh subeh. Chahe woh khaane peene ka dhyaan ho, unke sleeping pattern ho, aaj kal raat ko late nights chal rahi hai par alag kisam ki! Teen chaar baje feeding ho raha.” He described how the daily routine has completely shifted, with nighttime feedings and attention to the baby’s sleeping and eating schedule becoming the couple’s new normal.

Despite his active role, Sidharth humbly noted that Kiara remains the central figure in their daughter’s early life. “Main toh abhi supporting actor play kar raha hoon, jo sirf wahan pe khade hoke dekh raha hai,” he said. When asked about diaper duties, Sidharth shared a laugh, admitting, “Kiya hai diaper change, aur bina diaper ka ‘oops moment’ bhi experience kiya hai ab toh.” His lighthearted anecdotes revealed the challenges and surprises of early fatherhood, emphasizing the learning curve for new parents.

The couple’s journey to parenthood was publicly shared earlier this year. Kiara announced her pregnancy in February 2025, and she showcased her baby bump at the Met Gala in May. Their daughter’s arrival on 15 July was confirmed publicly the next day, prompting congratulatory messages from fans and fellow actors across the industry.

Sidharth appeared on Kapil Sharma’s show to promote his upcoming film Param Sundari, directed by Tushar Jalota, alongside co-stars Janhvi Kapoor, Sanjay Kapoor, Manjot Singh, and Inayat Verma. The film is set to release in theatres on 29 August 2025, with the episode featuring the cast dropping on Netflix on 30 August at 8 PM.

While Sidharth continues to navigate the responsibilities of a new father, Kiara balances her professional commitments with her new role as a mother. Most recently, Kiara was seen in Ayan Mukerji’s War 2, starring alongside Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR, demonstrating her continued presence in Bollywood even amidst personal milestones.

Through his candid sharing, Sidharth’s appearance on Kapil Sharma’s show offered a glimpse into the evolving dynamics of celebrity parenthood, blending humor with honesty. His self-deprecating remark about being the “supporting actor” highlighted the couple’s team effort in parenting, while also giving fans a relatable perspective on the joys and challenges of welcoming a newborn into the family.

As Kiara and Sidharth adjust to life with their baby girl, their fans continue to celebrate their milestones, from pregnancy announcements to first-time fatherhood stories, reflecting a blend of cinematic glamour and personal life’s tender realities.
