Celebrities have a difficult time keeping their family lives private, since they are in the limelight and constantly under public scrutiny. While some of them are comfortable with sharing about their kids with the public and their fans, some Bollywood celebrities keep their babies away from the spotlight till they are old enough to decide. They also want to make sure their kids have a normal childhood.
There are many celebrity kids like Taimur Ali Khan who have been internet sensations from the time he was born and he seems very comfortable with all the media attention. However, some celebrity parents choose to keep their babies away from the media glare. Take a look at some of them.
When news broke out about Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor becoming parents, their fans and the media went berserk. The birth of their little daughter Raha was perhaps the most anticipated. All their fans and the media were waiting to get a glimpse of little Raha. But Alia and Ranbir made sure their baby girl Raha stays far far away from the spotlight. Even though the two of them share about their parenting journey with their fans, they have not yet revealed their daughter Raha’s face to the media.
Sonam Kapoor and her husband Anand Ahuja became parents to a baby boy Vayu on 20 August 2022. Ever since then, Sonam’s fans have been waiting to get a glimpse of little Vayu but looks like that’s not going to happen soon. Sonam Kapoor is very protective of her baby boy and even though she shares updates about her Vayu on her social media, her fans are yet to see the baby’s face.
The birth of Malti Marie Chopra Jonas, Priyanka and Nick Jonas’ daughter were one of the most awaited. Born via surrogacy, Malti Marie Chopra Jonas not only has a long name but a long list of fans already! But her parents; Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Nick Jonas are doing everything it takes to keep her away from all the media glare. Even though Priyanka keeps posting pictures with her daughter, she never exposes her daughter’s face and all their pictures are cleverly shot keeping that in mind.
Bollywood actor Bipasha Basu and her actor-husband Karan Singh Grover welcomed their daughter Devi on 12 November 2022 and ever since then, the two have been in full parenting mode! However, they have not shared Devi’s face with their fans yet, even though they give them glimpses of their little girl often.
Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli were very clear right from the time their daughter Vamika was born that they were not keen to have Vamika in the limelight. They had earlier issued an official statement too, revealing the reason for keeping Vamika away from the limelight. They said, “We have decided as a couple to not expose our child to social media before she has an understanding of what social media is and can make her own choice.”
Preity Zinta and her husband Gene Goodenough became parents to twins via surrogacy in November last year. Ever since then, she has been enjoying motherhood and had also posted that out of all the roles she’s played in life, motherhood is the best. However, she has refrained from posting pictures of them on social media.
Neha Dhupia and actor husband Angad Bedi became parents for the first time in 2018 and then again in 2021. They often share pictures of their little ones but their faces are not clearly shown, they often share back shots of their kids, Mehr and Guriq. But Neha did break this rule of not sharing images of her kids when she introduced them when she was celebrating 20 years of being crowned at a beauty pageant. However, in an interview, Neha said this wasn’t permanent. She said, “I think it is still one glimpse and goes. I am still in a phase where I want to keep them under wraps and protect them. It was just one special moment on stage, which was a really important moment for me. I would have never thought that I would be recrowned after 20 years. It happens to a few people.”
Rani Mukerji and Aditya Chopra’s daughter Adira has been kept away from the limelight since the time she was born. Aditya who is known to be reclusive is not comfortable about sharing his daughter’s pictures on social media or with the media. In an earlier interview with rani Mukherjee, she told me that this was a joint decision they made as parents. “Adi is a very private person so we decided to keep Adira away from media because we want our child to grow up in a normal atmosphere. If tomorrow she wants to go to the beach or the park and play, she should be able to do that like any normal child,” Rani said and we couldn’t agree more.
Aftab Shivdasani and how wife Nin Dusanj’s daughter Nevaeh is another celebrity kid who has been kept away from the media. In fact, the two were very secretive about her birth well and the two have never even shared a glimpse of their daughter on social media. Aftab was very clear about it and said in an interview, “Our daughter is extremely precious to us, we want to keep her away from the illusion of social media for as long as possible.”
