Ranveer Singh with wife Deepika Padukone
Last Sunday, Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh welcomed their baby girl at a south Mumbai hospital. Yesterday, the mother and daughter were discharged from the hospital. The new parents were accompanied by their family as they headed home with their bundle of joy. Ranveer had planned an elaborate homecoming for Deepika and their newborn daughter. Interestingly, the Kalki 2898 AD actor has changed her social media bio after embracing motherhood. While it previously read, âFollow your bliss', it now reads, âFeed. Burp. Sleep. Repeat,' indicating that the little one is keeping her mommy on her toes. The couple has reportedly imposed a no-face-show policy for their daughter. So, guess, we'll have to wait a little longer to get a dekko of the newest star kid in tinsel town.

The weekend saw the announcement of Vijay's final film, tentatively titled Thalapathy 69. In February this year, the actor had announced his political party, Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam and also stated that he would quit acting after two movies. GOAT - The Greatest Of All Time, the first of Vijay's last two films, opened on September 5 to huge box-office numbers, despite mixed reviews. Alongside the poster of a hand holding a flaming torch, the makers stated on social media, "The torch bearer of democracy is arriving in October 25." Going by that declaration, it looks like H Vinoth's directorial venture will have political undertones, in keeping with his foray into politics.
