Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh welcome their second baby girl on September 19, 2026, nearly two years after daughter Dua’s birth.
New Delhi:Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh have welcomed their second child, a baby girl, on September 19, 2026. The couple announced the happy news through a joint Instagram post featuring their newborn’s tiny footprint and a simple welcome message. The announcement also carried the names of Deepika, Ranveer and their daughter Dua, making it a sweet family reveal. Dua, who turned two on September 8, is now officially a big sister.
Deepika and Ranveer announce baby girl number two
Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh have become parents for the second time. The couple welcomed a baby girl on September 19, almost exactly two years after their first daughter, Dua Padukone Singh, arrived in September 2024.
The couple confirmed the birth themselves through their Instagram announcement. They have not shared the baby’s name, weight or any details about the delivery, keeping the first news focused on the arrival of their daughter.
How they shared the news: a simple, heartfelt post
The couple chose a quiet and familiar style for the announcement. Their joint Instagram post showed an imprint of the newborn’s tiny footprint alongside the words “Welcome Baby Girl!” and the date 19.9.2026.
They signed the post with three names — Dua, Deepika and Ranveer. That small detail turned the announcement into a celebration of the family as a whole, with Dua included right from the beginning of her little sister’s story.
The format also echoed the way they announced Dua’s arrival in 2024, when they kept the focus firmly on their newborn rather than using a long caption or elaborate reveal.
A temple visit the day before, just like last time
Just one day before the birth announcement, Deepika and Ranveer visited Mumbai’s Siddhivinayak Temple with Ranveer’s parents, Anju and Jagjit Singh Bhavnani. The couple sought blessings as they awaited the arrival of their second child.
The visit also brought back memories of September 2024. Deepika and Ranveer had visited Siddhivinayak shortly before Dua’s birth, creating a striking family tradition around the arrival of their children.
The pregnancy journey: from announcement to arrival
Deepika and Ranveer announced their second pregnancy on April 19, 2026. They shared a picture of Dua holding a positive pregnancy test, while evil-eye emojis added a playful and protective touch to the announcement.
As September approached, the couple offered fans a few glimpses of their growing family. On Dua’s second birthday on September 8, they shared family pictures that showed Deepika’s baby bump. Ranveer’s accompanying message reflected how their family and their happiness had grown.
The couple also shared glimpses from a maternity photoshoot before welcoming their second daughter, giving fans a look at this special chapter without revealing too much of their private life.
Dua’s role in the big reveal
Dua has been part of this journey from the very beginning. Her presence in the pregnancy announcement in April made it clear that the couple wanted her to be part of the family’s next chapter.
Now, the two-year-old has officially become a big sister. Her name alongside Deepika and Ranveer in the birth announcement makes the reveal even more personal and shows how the couple has included her in the family’s happiest moment.
Looking back: how Dua came into their lives in 2024
Deepika and Ranveer welcomed their first daughter, Dua, on September 8, 2024. They initially chose to keep her away from the public spotlight and announced her name only in November that year.
The name “Dua” means prayer, and the couple has spoken about their daughter as an answer to their prayers. Just eleven days after Dua celebrated her second birthday in 2026, she welcomed a baby sister into her life.
Their love story: from Lake Como to a growing family
Deepika and Ranveer’s family story began with a Bollywood romance that grew beyond the screen. The two first worked together on Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela and later shared the screen in Bajirao Mastani and Padmaavat.
They married in November 2018 in an intimate ceremony at Lake Como, Italy. Fans soon gave them the affectionate nickname “DeepVeer”, and their relationship has continued to attract attention as their family has grown.
What’s next for the couple, work-wise
The new arrival comes alongside busy professional lives for both actors. Deepika was last seen on screen in Singham Again in 2024, which featured an ensemble cast including Ajay Devgn, Kareena Kapoor Khan and Akshay Kumar.
She also has King, starring Shah Rukh Khan, in her upcoming slate. The film is scheduled for release on December 24, 2026, according to recent reports.
Ranveer, meanwhile, has been working on Pralay. He recently took a break from filming to visit Lalbaugcha Raja before joining Deepika and his parents at Siddhivinayak Temple.
For now, though, the spotlight belongs to the newest member of the family. Deepika and Ranveer have welcomed another little girl, and Dua has a whole new role to embrace.
Wishing Deepika, Ranveer, Dua and their newborn daughter lots of love, happiness and precious family moments as they begin this beautiful new chapter together.
