Mumbai, India – In a heartwarming display of gratitude, actor Rajkummar Rao shared sweets with paparazzi at the We The Women summit in Mumbai on Sunday, December 1, 2025, celebrating the arrival of his newborn daughter with wife Patralekhaa. The couple welcomed their first child, a baby girl, on November 15, 2025, which also marked their fourth wedding anniversary.
Rao's gesture was warmly received by the photographers and has since gone viral on social media, with fans praising his humility and genuine happiness. Videos circulating online show the actor, dressed in a casual white t-shirt, black jacket, and glasses, arriving at the event with his team carrying boxes of sweets. He greeted the paparazzi with a broad smile and personally distributed the treats.
As the paparazzi congratulated him, Rao expressed his gratitude. When asked if they had chosen a name for their daughter, he responded, "Abhi nahi" (not yet).
The couple had announced the arrival of their baby girl via a joint post on Instagram, expressing their joy and calling her "the greatest blessing God has given us on our 4th wedding anniversary". The post was met with an outpouring of love and congratulations from fans and fellow Bollywood celebrities.
Rao and Patralekhaa, who tied the knot in a private ceremony in Chandigarh in November 2021 after dating for several years, announced their pregnancy in July 2025. In an earlier interview, Patralekhaa mentioned that she was pregnant during a trip to New Zealand. The couple first met on the sets of the film ‘Citylights’ in 2014 and have since worked together in several projects, including the web series ‘Bose: Dead/Alive’. They also launched their own production house, KAMPA Films, earlier this year.
The birth of their daughter marks a new chapter in the couple's journey, with Rao previously expressing his excitement about becoming a father. "We are absolutely thrilled, to be honest," he said in an interview. "We feel like a lot of our friends, who are parents have been telling us, that this is going to be the best phase of your life. So, we are looking forward to it". Patralekhaa added that this new step felt like a "natural progression" to their relationship, as they have been together for 15 years and have "literally grown up together".
The actor's sweet gesture of distributing sweets to the paparazzi is a testament to the couple's down-to-earth nature and has further endeared them to their fans. The video of Rao's act of kindness has been widely shared, with comments such as "The perfect example of BADHAI HO" and "Respect For @rajkummar_rao Congratulations" flooding social media.
