It's a girl! Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt embrace parenthood

Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt have become proud parents to a baby girl. The couple was spotted while making their way towards the hospital on Sunday morning. They were seen in their car as they headed towards Shri H.N. Reliance Foundation Hospital in Girgaon, Mumbai. Ranbir and Alia embraced parenthood after tying the knot in April this year.

Alia shared a beautiful note on her social media pages to announce that their daughter had been born. It read as "And in the best news of our lives: Our baby is here... and what a magical girl she is. We are officially bursting with love - blessed and obsessed parents."

The whole Kapoor and Bhatt families, including Neetu Kapoor and Soni Razdan, were snapped outside the hospital soon after Alia got admitted.

Several sources say that Ranbir and Alia Bhatt were seen entering HN Reliance Hospital at 7:30 a.m. on Sunday to get ready for the birth. Videos from outside the hospital were also circulated by paparazzi and fan pages. In the morning, a group of cars could be seen driving up to the hospital. Alia and Ranbir couldn't be seen in the videos, though.

On Sunday, filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt discussed Alia's child amid rumours that the actor had been brought to the hospital for labour. The veteran filmmaker told ETimes, "Waiting for a new sun to rise. A fresh sparkling dew drop of life."

Alia and Ranbir, who got married on April 14, were last spotted in their first collaboration, Brahmastra. Recently, Alia also unveiled the Ed-A-Mamma maternity line. Last month, Alia had a baby shower to which only her and Ranbir's closest family and friends were invited. Neetu Kapoor, Karisma Kapoor, Shaheen Bhatt, and many other celebrities who were all dressed in traditional attire joined the now-new parents.

Alia even shot for her Hollywood debut, Heart of Stone, after announcing her pregnancy in June. Along with Ranbir, the actor did a lot to promote Darlings and Ayan Mukerji's Brahmastra by going on city tours and meeting fans.
