Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh Welcome a Second Daughter
Deepika and Ranveer are a family of four. They shared a baby-girl announcement on Sept. 19 with a footprint and big sister Dua’s name on the card. Both daughters are September babies.
Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh are now a family of four.
On Saturday, September 19, 2026, the couple shared a joint Instagram post welcoming a baby girl. Reports describe a simple card with a tiny footprint, the date 19/9/2026, and the names Dua, Deepika, and Ranveer, plus welcome wording along the lines of “Welcome, baby girl.” The newborn’s name has not been shared yet.
Their older daughter, Dua Padukone Singh, was born September 8, 2024. She is two this month, and she is suddenly a big sister. Two September girls, almost exactly two years apart.
A day before the post, Deepika and Ranveer visited Mumbai’s Siddhivinayak Temple with Ranveer’s parents. Coverage framed the stop as a blessing ahead of arrival. They had made a similar visit days before Dua’s birth in 2024.
The pregnancy news first landed in April, when a joint post showed little Dua holding a positive test. Saturday’s footprint closed the loop with almost no fanfare.
Announcement facts (TOI / Indian Express / trade coverage, Sept. 19, 2026)
Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh welcomed a second daughter on Saturday, Sept. 19, 2026, per joint Instagram posts reported by Times of India, The Statesman, and other entertainment desks. Announcement: baby footprint graphic; “Welcome baby girl” / welcome wording; date 19/9/2026; names Dua, Deepika, and Ranveer; newborn’s name not disclosed in the post. Elder daughter Dua Padukone Singh born Sept. 8, 2024; name shared publicly around November 2024. Second pregnancy announced April 19, 2026, via a joint post featuring Dua holding a positive pregnancy test (evil-eye emoji captions in several reports). Married Nov. 14, 2018, Lake Como. Sept. 18, 2026: Siddhivinayak Temple visit with Ranveer’s parents (Jagjit Singh Bhavnani and Anju Bhavnani), covered by India Today and others; outlets note a similar Siddhivinayak stop on Sept. 6, 2024, shortly before Dua’s birth. Treat quotes and caption wording as reported by outlets translating the couple’s social posts.
A celebrity birth announcement can still feel human: name the big sister, keep the newborn’s privacy, and let the household catch its breath before the group chat asks for more.
A small post, and plenty of feeling
A lot of celebrity baby notes linger on the caption, the older sibling, and whatever the couple chose to show. Deepika and Ranveer showed almost nothing, and it still feels warm.
A footprint and three names leave room for the household to settle before the internet gets a nursery tour. When Millie Bobby Brown announced an adoption in 2025, she wrote about peace and privacy in the same breath as the welcome. You do not need a red carpet for that instinct.
If the group chat is already asking for weight, length, and a full-face photo, you can answer with the news and keep the rest offline. Joy travels fine without a hospital-gate shot.
Dua is a big sister now
The detail that sticks is Dua’s name on the card. The couple put the toddler in the welcome before they put a newborn moniker online.
That choice has a soft emotional pull. The first child suddenly has a job title.
When Michelle Kwan welcomed her second daughter, she wrote about watching her older child walk in to meet a baby sister. Deepika and Ranveer’s version is quieter, but the feeling is familiar.
Two under two-and-change is a real season. Naps collide. Hand-me-downs show up early.
Grandparents get two September birthdays. If you are thinking about a second baby, talk about sleep, leave, and who can take a night shift before you talk about matching outfits.
Blessings first, then the announcement
On September 18, cameras caught the couple at Siddhivinayak with Ranveer’s parents. On September 19, the footprint post went up.
Plenty of families do some version of that order: a temple visit, a priest’s prayer, a quiet thank-you at home, then the texts. Ritual can stay meaningful even when photographers are outside the gate.
The pacing is the part worth borrowing. Tell the people who need to know, share what feels true, and hold back what still belongs to the living room. The baby does not owe the timeline a photoshoot.
