Kalki Koechlin gave birth to a baby girl in February this year. The actress and her partner named their daughter Sappho. Kalki had announced in September last year that she was expecting a child with boyfriend Guy Hershberg.
In an exclusive interview with mid-day, the actress shared. "This was an unexpected pregnancy. In the first two months, I didn't feel any maternal instinct. It felt like an alien invasion, where this little thing was acting like a vampire, sucking out everything from my body," Koechlin said, adding that her maternal instinct soon kicked in. "When I heard the heartbeat for the first time, I got excited."
