On Sunday, Nakuul and Jankee took to Instagram to post a carousel of photos announcing the arrival of their daughter. The first photo showed their son Sufi holding his newborn sister in his arms and adoring her. The second captured Nakuul gazing lovingly at his baby daughter as she lay in a cradle. The third featured a selfie of the happy parents taken shortly after her birth.
Sharing the pictures, Nakuul wrote a heartfelt note, “She’s here. Sufi finally has his Rumi. Our hearts are complete. 💕15th August 2025. Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it 🎶.”
Nakuul’s industry friends and fans showered love on the newborn and congratulated the couple. One comment read, “Many many congratulations to you both and Sufi. Welcome to this world Rumi. May you be blessed with a long, happy and healthy life.” Another said, “Awwww our Sufi is now a big brother!! Congratulations.” A third wrote, “Wow! Congratulations on the arrival of your little princess! Lots of love.”
Back in June, Nakuul had announced Jankee’s pregnancy by sharing family pictures in which the couple, dressed in beige and grey, posed with Sufi in their garden. Their son proudly held a drawing of their “happy family”, including his sibling-to-be. Nakuul captioned it: “The boy is ready for additional responsibility. So are we. We are accepting blessings, 𝓪𝓰𝓪𝓲𝓷.”
