Playful Video Captures Newborn Antics
On September 8, Deepika Padukone and her husband, actor Ranveer Singh, officially announced the arrival of their baby girl, marking the start of a new chapter in their lives as parents. Deepika, who has been relatively private about her personal life, decided to share a light-hearted take on her maternal experiences by reposting the viral Instagram Reel to her 80.2 million followers.
The video she re-shared features a woman mimicking the chaotic yet adorable antics of newborns during mealtime. The woman wakes up groggily on the couch, makes her way to the kitchen to prepare food, and hilariously attempts to eat it messily. As she stares at her plate, she clumsily shakes her head and tries to eat, capturing the chaotic movements of babies who are just learning how to navigate the world. The video ends with her passing out after just one bite, her mouth wide open, mimicking the exhaustion newborns often feel after feeding.
This humorous clip resonated with Deepika, now a new mom, as she embraced the small yet endearing challenges that come with raising a baby.
