Within a month of giving birth to her second child, actress Gauahar Khan has surprised fans and followers by sharing a video of herself performing Bhangra to the Bollywood song "Raat Ke 12 Baje". The actress, who welcomed her baby boy on September 1st, 2025, posted the video on social media, showcasing her energetic dance moves and seemingly effortless energy so soon after delivery.
Gauahar, known for her vibrant personality, captioned the video with "No Rehearsal," emphasizing the spontaneous nature of her performance. The post quickly went viral, drawing admiration and praise from fans, fellow celebrities, and media outlets alike. Many lauded her spirit and dedication to maintaining an active lifestyle even in the postpartum period.
This isn't the first time Gauahar has shared glimpses into her postpartum journey. She previously posted a video showing her skincare and haircare routine, along with dancing to "Zor Laga Ke Nacche Re" from the movie Rangeela, revealing how she was tackling postpartum in her own unique style. In that video, she mentioned taking each day as it comes and going slow yet steady.
Gauahar and her husband, Zaid Darbar, have been open about embracing parenthood. Before the arrival of their second child, the couple shared a fun video of themselves dancing to "Don't You Wish Your Girlfriend Was Hot Like Me?" by The Pussycat Dolls in the hospital room. They announced their second pregnancy in April 2025 with a dance video set to Jessie J's "Price Tag".
The actress has also spoken about balancing her personal and professional commitments. Just 25 days after giving birth, Gauahar returned to work, appearing on Bigg Boss Season 19 to support her brother-in-law, Awez Darbar. She shared a picture of herself in a stylish black pantsuit, captioning it "#25dayspostpartum" to highlight her ability to balance work and motherhood.
Gauahar and Zaid are also parents to a 3-year-old son, Zehaan, who was born in May 2023. The actress has been sharing snippets of her life as a mother on social media, including glimpses from her baby shower in August, where she wore a shimmering yellow-golden gown.
Gauahar's recent Bhangra performance has resonated with many, sparking conversations about postpartum recovery, body positivity, and the importance of self-expression. While some have expressed concern about the intensity of the dance so soon after childbirth, many others have celebrated her energy and inspiring approach to motherhood.
In a past Instagram live session, Gauahar shared tips for new mothers and talked about postpartum weight loss, emphasizing the importance of working out when permissible and not being too hard on oneself. She also mentioned that she didn't experience postpartum hair loss because she continued taking her vitamins after delivery.
