Kajal Aggarwal, Gautam Kitchlu welcome baby boy

Actress Kajal Aggarwal and her husband Gautam Kitchlu have become parents to a baby boy.

The child, who was born on Tuesday, has been named Neil Kitchlu. Gautam has shared an adorable post announcing the name of his son.

The note, which includes the names of the baby's parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles, read, "We are delighted to announce the birth of Neil Kitchlu on April 19, 2020." Gautam's post was captioned, "Our hearts are full and we are full of gratitude. Thank you everyone for your love and blessings.

Kajal also shared a long note on Instagram where she wrote candidly about her child's birth and post-partum anxiety, among other things.

The actress's note read, "Excited and elated to welcome my baby Neil into this world. Our birthing was exhilarating, overwhelming, long, yet the most satisfying experience there could be! Holding Neil upon my chest covered with white mucous membrane and placenta within seconds of his birth has been my only tryst with self-actualization and such an indescribable feeling! That one moment made me understand the deepest potential of love, made me feel a tremendous amount of gratitude and realize the responsibility of my heart outside of my body — forever — and all at the same time.

"But it’s also moments like these — Sweet cuddles in the wee hours of the morning, gazing into each other’s eyes with a look of confident recognition, adorable little kisses, the quiet moments when it’s just the two of us, growing, learning, discovering each other and navigating this wonderful journey together. In reality, postpartum isn’t glamorous but it sure can be beautiful!."

Kajal and Gautam got married in a fairytale ceremony on 30 October 2020 in Mumbai. 

The actress will be next seen in the Telugu action-drama Acharya (2022) alongside Chiranjeevi, Ram Charan and Pooja Hegde. The film is scheduled to be released on 29 April.
