Second-time mom-to-be Ishita Dutta posted an array of photos from her 'shaadh' ceremony hosted by her family.
Ishita Dutta, known for her stint in Drishyam, is expecting her second child with her actor husband, Vatsal Sheth. The couple, who tied the knot in November 2017, keeps dishing out some family goals with lovely glimpses from their lives. From playful moments with their baby boy, Vaayu, to celebrating each other's achievements, the madly in love duo has been together through thick and thin. Recently, the pregnant actress' family organised a 'shaadh" ceremony for her, and the glimpses from the same are too cute to miss.
On Instagram, Ishita Dutta posted a series of glimpses from the shaadh ceremony hosted by her family during the third trimester of pregnancy. FYI: The 'Shaadh" ceremony is a Bengali baby shower tradition for celebrating the mother-to-be during her 7th or 9th month of pregnancy. Following the same Bengali rituals, the second-time expectant actress was served an array of dishes to honour and fulfil her cravings and desires. We can spot a plate full of rice served alongside two slices of fried fish and five different vegetables, and a few pieces of fresh green salad. Besides the plate, an assortment of lovely items was also present on the same table. It included dal, fish curry, as well as sweet items to relish at the end of her meal, like kheer and two types of rasgullas.
For the intimate ceremony, Ishita donned a comfortable pink-hued attire and looked super enthusiastic while posing for some love-filled pictures with her family. However, it was her baby boy who stole the show with his sheer joy and excitement. Dropping the glimpses, the doting mommy revealed that the true highlight of her event was Vaayu, who was extremely eager to savour the wholesome meal.
'Shaadh, Celebrating the little life within, a bit early this time, because some moments can't wait. Showered with love, blessings, and all things sweet for a safe journey ahead. P.S. Vaayu couldn't wait to dig into all the yummy food – the true highlight for him! #MotherhoodMoments #BengaliRituals #FamilyLove," read Ishita's caption.
Earlier, in a conversation with HT, Vatsal confirmed their 'good news' and revealed his reaction after learning about the same. 'Ishita walked into our room and told me the news. I remember it was one of those days when Vayu was super cranky. We did take time to let the news sink in before we decided to let the world know that the newest member of our family is due in July," the actor said.
Further, opening up about their future plans, he said, 'As parents, we have discussed how to go about it, as the second pregnancy will surely be quite different from the first. As a father, I will take care of my son and my wife, who needs special attention. Both of us have decided that once the baby arrives, I will take care of Vayu, and Ishita will be with our new angel."
