Ruslaan Mumtaz-Nirali Mehta to Smriti Khanna-Gautam Gupta: Here are the celebs who became parents during the lockdown

The worldwide lockdown that was imposed earlier this year. It disturbed human life across the planet. We have seen heart – wrenching stories of people, who were hit the hardest by the lockdown. Economies have crashed and nations have run dry of resources.

However, positivity is something that makes its way, somehow. And nothing manifests positivity as the birth of life. While we were in mourning over the world’s misery, what came as a ray of hope for most was the birth of their child.

From Ekta Kaul and Sumeet Vyas to Smriti Khanna and Gautam Gupta, let’s look at celebs who became parents during this lockdown and welcomed a new member in their family.

Ruslaan Mumtaz and Nirali Mehta

Ruslaan Mumtaz and wife Nirali welcomed their first child – a baby boy named Rayaan on 26th March. However, the delivery came with its own share of troubles. Sharing the same, Ruslaan had said, “Due to the Covid-19 lockdown, I and Nirali were advised to leave the hospital unexpectedly on March 27. We were supposed to stay at the hospital for two more nights, but the authorities first asked us to change Nirali’s room to a different floor. An hour later, the doctor informed us that the hospital had opened up for Covid-19 patients. They suggested we should leave.” That was surely a critical situation but we are glad that everything went well and the mother and baby are doing fine.
