Neha Dhupia posted the image on Monday, July 19, 2021.
The caption reads:

“The best one we could think of was… Thank you, God.”
Messages of congratulations poured in for the couple on their announcement.
Celebrities such as Bollywood star Ananya Panday and stylist Tanya Ghavri sent well wishes to the couple.
Panday simply said: “Yayyy!”
Karisma Kapoor also commented to say: “Congratulations Neha, Angad and Mehr”
Dia Mirza, who has just welcomed a baby herself, left a series of heart emojis under Dhupia’s post.
Also, filmmaker and choreographer Farah Khan commented to reveal that she knew about Neha Dhupia’s pregnancy before her announcement.
She said: “So now I can tell people?”
Neha Dhupia’s husband Angad Bedi posted the same image to his Instagram on Monday, July 19, 2021.
His post also received a wealth of congratulatory messages.
The caption reads: “New home production coming soon…Waheguru Mehr kare.”
Neha Dhupia and Angad Bedi tied the knot in May 2018. Their first child arrived in November 2018.
Dhupia often takes to Instagram to share her family’s milestones with her fans and followers.
In November 2020, Dhupia posted an image to the platform to mark her daughter’s second birthday.
The caption read:
“Our little baby girl…
“May you always be curious, sing even if you don’t know the lyrics, dance like no one is watching, forever be eager to learn, chase butterflies, spread joy wherever you go, light up the room with your adorable smile and roar the loudest caus deep down you will always be our little simbaa!
“#happybirthday our doll @mehrdhupiabedi #2yearsold.”
As Mehr arrived so soon after Neha Dhupia and Angad Bedi tied the knot, Dhupia was three months pregnant when Bedi approached her parents to ask them for her hand.
Reportedly, Dhupia’s parents were unhappy, and her mother suffered a nosebleed due to the stress.
Angad Bedi later spoke about the experience on his wife’s show, No Filter Neha.
He said:
“Considering that you (Neha) didn’t want to break the news that you were expecting, so we had to tell them that we need to get married and we love each other.
“I was extremely nervous because that was the judgement day, technically.
“To break the news to your parents, I really had cold feet as clearly it was not going to come from you (Neha).
“Everything had to come for me. I had to really man up and speak. I just had to blurt it out and see the reaction.”
