After a fiercely contested Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy series in England, Indian cricketer KL Rahul is making the most of his well-deserved break. The star batter, who played a pivotal role in the series, is now spending some quiet and peaceful time with his wife, actress Athiya Shetty, and their baby daughter, Evaarah.
Taking to Instagram, Rahul gave fans a heartwarming glimpse into his family life. The first photo shows him sitting in a serene park alongside Athiya, exuding calm and contentment. The second image, presumably taken by Athiya, captures a tender moment — Rahul strolling through the park with little Evaarah in his arms, a picture that quickly melted hearts across social media.
In another post from the same day, Rahul is seen at a cozy restaurant with his brother-in-law, actor Ahan Shetty. The photo was followed by an especially endearing snap of baby Evaarah holding on to her father’s hand with her tiny fingers — a gesture that captured the attention and affection of netizens and celebrities alike. Proud grandfather Suniel Shetty and actor Ranveer Singh were among the many who flooded the comments section, showering the family with love and blessings.

The family also had more reasons to smile, as India clinched a thrilling six-run victory over England in the fifth and final Test match of the series. A celebratory video captured by Ahan Shetty showed Suniel Shetty visibly elated as they rejoiced the nail-biting win together, adding another joyful chapter to the week’s events.
