Sonam Kapoor and Anand Ahuja Await Second Child with Joyous Celebrations
Bollywood actor Sonam Kapoor is preparing to welcome her second child with husband Anand Ahuja, marking another beautiful chapter in their family journey. The couple recently hosted a traditional godh bharai (baby shower) ceremony in Mumbai, which was attended by close family members and friends from the entertainment industry.
Miheeka Bajaj's Emotional Tribute to a Lifelong Friendship
Among the notable attendees was Miheeka Bajaj, wife of actor Rana Daggubati, who shared a deeply personal and emotional message for Sonam on Instagram. Miheeka posted a series of photographs featuring herself, her mother Bunty Bajaj, her sister Sasha Rawal Bajaj, and the expectant mother Sonam Kapoor. The images also captured intimate moments of Sonam and Anand performing a puja at their home.
In her heartfelt caption, Miheeka wrote, "Another little heartbeat joining a family I love so dearly." She reflected on their enduring bond, tracing it back to their childhood days. "From childhood days when I followed you around, to now watching you have your own little ones who will do the same, it's been so special to witness you both build this beautiful life. So much love for this next chapter," she added, expressing warmth and affection.
Miheeka further extended her congratulations through Instagram Stories, posting, "Congratulations!! Wishing you lots of happiness! @sonamkapoor @anandahuja." The Bajaj family has maintained a close relationship with the Kapoor family for many years, with Miheeka also being known to share a strong friendship with Sonam's sister, Rhea Kapoor.
Moving Past Previous Controversies
This public display of camaraderie comes after a past controversy involving Rana Daggubati. In 2023, while promoting his film 'King of Kotha', Rana mentioned that a Hindi actress was distracted by shopping during a film shoot with his friend Dulquer Salmaan. This led to speculation that the comment was directed at Sonam Kapoor and her film 'The Zoya Factor'.
Following significant backlash, Rana issued an apology, clarifying that his light-hearted remark had been misinterpreted. Miheeka's viral post now indicates that the families have moved beyond the incident, focusing instead on celebrating joyous occasions together.

Most precious @sonamkapoor @anandahuja." Her posts included images of Sonam's mother-in-law, Priya Ahuja, performing an aarti, as well as videos of Sonam and Anand engaged in the pooja together. Anshula also provided glimpses of the elegant décor and traditional sweets arranged for the guests.
Sonam and Anand's Family Journey: From Marriage to Parenthood
Sonam Kapoor and Anand Ahuja tied the knot in 2018 in a traditional Sikh ceremony held in Mumbai. The couple welcomed their first child, a son named Vayu Kapoor Ahuja, in 2022. As they now prepare to embrace parenthood for the second time, heartfelt wishes continue to pour in from friends, family, and fans across the globe.
This expanding family narrative highlights not only their personal joy but also the strong support system within their social and professional circles. The baby shower served as a testament to the love and camaraderie that defines their journey together.
