"A tiny heartbeat is the loudest sound in our world."
Bollywood couple Richa Chadha and Ali Fazal have announced that they are expecting their first child together.
Taking to Instagram, they shared a post that read:
“1+1=3.”
Another image featured the couple gazing at each other along with a pregnant girl emoji.
The caption read: “A tiny heartbeat is the loudest sound in our world.”
Soon after, celebrities took to the comments section to congratulate the expectant parents.
Mrunal Thakur wrote: “Yay congratulations.”
Dia Mirza said: “I love you three.”
TV host Mini Mathur jokingly posted: “You think I can start charging for knowing peeps are pregnant before doctors.
“Love you guys and congratulations.”
Richa Chadha and Ali Fazal have been married since 2020 but they did not publicly announce it.
They celebrated their marriage in 2022 with their friends and family.
Richa had previously called their wedding “peaceful”.
She explained: “We got married under the Special Marriage Act, the family court is right around the corner. And it was super peaceful. And I don’t think it’s out of the ordinary.
“It happens in society, which is why there is a very big act for it. Of course, I feel like media really makes these kinds of things, it’s actually terrible and is very corrosive for society.”
The couple met on the set of their film Fukrey.
Ali revealed that in the early days, he tried his best to impress Richa.
“I remember we were reading for Fukrey and I don’t know why I just went and sat next to her and it was stupid like those stupid things you do.
“I wanted to be part of the conversation, and I’m like, ‘Oh, you want this dish? You want this?’ And the same dish is right here.
“It was unnecessary chivalry. Then we started talking a lot. We bonded on a lot of things actually.”
Richa and Ali will soon be seen in RiAlity, a documentary about their wedding.
Speaking about the documentary, Ali said:
“RiAlity is a testament to the fact that love is not always perfect, but it is always enough.
“Love is profound, it is messy, and yet worth moving worlds for.
“RiAlity captures some of the essence of our journey, not just as actors but as two regular people in love.”
Richa will also feature in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s upcoming Netflix series Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar.
