In an emotional Instagram post, KL Rahul and Athiya Shetty have introduced their precious baby girl to the world. The couple shared a heartwarming image of themselves holding their newborn daughter, with a simple yet powerful caption that reads: “Our baby girl, our everything. Evaarah ~ Gift of God.” The photo, radiating love and tenderness, instantly captured the hearts of fans and followers, who flooded the post with congratulatory messages.
The Meaning Behind the Name
Athiya Shetty, in a heartfelt Instagram story, revealed the significance of their daughter’s name. “Evaarah,” which means “Gift of God,” was chosen with much thought and affection. She further explained that “Vipula” is a tribute to Athiya’s great nani, who was a protective and loving figure in her life, while “Rahul” honors her father, KL Rahul. The combination of these elements makes Evaarah’s name all the more special for the couple.
In another story, Athiya also wished her husband a happy birthday, as the announcement coincided with Rahul’s special day, making it even more memorable for the family. The couple’s intimate sharing of their joy is a testament to the deep love they have for each other and their new daughter.
