Arbaaz Khan with Shabana Azmi
Arbaaz Khan and Sshura Khan welcomed their first child, a baby girl, this month. While the new parents are overjoyed, congratulations and heartfelt wishes are pouring in for them from all corners. Recently, Shabana Azmi shared an adorable wish for Arbaaz, in which she issued a cute warning for him.
Shabana dropped a picture with Arbaaz during what seemed to be a cake-cutting ceremony. These two were accompanied by Javed Akhtar in the photo, which included the caption: "Congratulations Arbaaz Khan on the arrival of Sipaara. Warning: She will make you dance around her fingers. That's the birthright of a daughter (Dancing girl and Smiling Face with Hearts emojis) (sic)."
Replying to her, Arbaaz said, "More than happy to dance around her little finger. Bahut Bahut Shukriyaa (sic)."
Arbaaz and his wife, Sshura Khan, welcomed their first child together, a baby girl, on October 5 this year. On October 8, the new parents revealed that they have decided to name their little bundle of joy Sipaara. Arbaaz and Sshura unveiled the name of their baby girl through a joint social media post with the caption, "Alhamdulillah," followed by a red heart emoji.
Arbaaz was also captured taking his newborn princess and Sshura home from the PD Hinduja Hospital in Mumbai, where the baby was born. The new dad was seen holding his little baby girl in his arms as he sat inside the car.
Back in June, once speculations started doing the rounds that Arbaaz and Sshura were expecting their first child together, the Dabangg 3 actor confirmed the pregnancy during a media interaction.
According to reports, Arbaaz and Sshura first met on the sets of the movie Patna Shukla. Sshura was working as the makeup artist for the leading lady, Raveena Tandon, in the project. After falling in love with one another, the couple got hitched in an intimate ceremony in Mumbai in December 2023.
To note, this is Arbaaz's second marriage. He was earlier married to actress Malaika Arora, with whom he shares a 22-year-old son, Arhaan Khan. The actors are co-parenting Arhaan.
