Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai actor Mohena Kumari Singh announced her pregnancy earlier this year. In a new interview, Mohena has revealed how her mother-in-law stopped a pundit who was praying for her to have a male child.
Mohena got married into a royal family of Rewa in Madhya Pradesh in 2019. On February 15, Mohena shared a series of pictures on Instagram of herself and her husband Suyesh Rawat and made the big announcement. She wrote, “Beginning of a new beginning. Sharing the Good News with All @suyeshrawat.”
In an interview with E-Times, Mohena talked about how her mother-in-law schooled a pundit who was praying for Mohena to have a male child. She said, “I am enjoying this phase as everyone wants to pamper me. My husband is still in Dehradun and has already started preparing a nursery. We discuss things on the phone. I want a healthy baby, there is no preference as such. But I do feel bad when people say ki beta ho. Recently, we had a puja at home and the pandit Ji kept telling my mom-in-law ki bahot saare bete ho (may you have several sons). Finally, she had to stop him and she said, 'Humhein beti chahiye (We want a daughter)!' I am really proud of my mom-in-law.”
