Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh Welcome Second Daughter on September 19, 2026
Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh welcome second daughter as the Bollywood couple announced the arrival of their baby girl on Saturday, September 19, 2026. The news makes their first daughter, Dua, an elder sister and brings the couple’s family to four.
Deepika and Ranveer shared the announcement on Instagram in their trademark understated style. The post featured a baby’s footprint alongside the words “Welcome Baby Girl” and the date 19.9.2026, with the announcement signed by Dua, Deepika and Ranveer.
The arrival marks another important chapter for the couple, who became parents for the first time in September 2024. Their daughter Dua was born on September 8, 2024, meaning both of the couple’s daughters have arrived in the same month.

Second pregnancy was announced in April
Deepika and Ranveer had confirmed that they were expecting their second child on April 19, 2026. In the Instagram announcement, their daughter Dua was seen holding a positive pregnancy test, while the couple kept the accompanying message simple with evil-eye emojis. The announcement was quickly met with congratulatory messages from their friends, colleagues and fans.
The couple had initially kept details of the pregnancy private, choosing to share the news publicly only when they were ready. Their latest announcement follows the same low-key approach, focusing attention on the arrival of their daughter rather than on elaborate celebrations.
Dua becomes an elder sister
With the birth of their second child, two-year-old Dua now has a younger sister. The couple had welcomed Dua in 2024 and later revealed her name publicly. Her arrival had marked the beginning of Deepika and Ranveer’s journey into parenthood after their marriage in 2018.
The latest announcement has once again drawn warm reactions from the film industry and fans on social media, with several celebrities congratulating the family and welcoming the newborn.

Temple visit came just a day before the announcement
The happy news came shortly after Deepika and Ranveer were seen visiting Mumbai’s Siddhivinayak Temple on September 18 along with members of Ranveer’s family. The couple sought blessings at the temple just one day before announcing the birth of their second child.
The appearance attracted considerable attention, particularly because the couple had already announced their pregnancy earlier in the year. Their visit was seen as a personal moment of seeking blessings before the arrival of their newest family member.
Deepika and Ranveer have generally maintained a balance between their highly public professional lives and their family’s privacy. Even their pregnancy and birth announcements have been shared selectively, allowing them to celebrate major milestones with fans while keeping personal details away from the spotlight.
For now, the couple’s latest post marks the beginning of a new phase for the family, with Dua stepping into her new role as an elder sister and Deepika and Ranveer becoming parents to two daughters.
The couple has not publicly revealed the newborn’s name in the announcement so far. Fans will likely be watching for any further update from the family as they settle into life with their new baby.
