Gul Panag welcomed her first child Nihal six months back
It has come as a surprise to many that Ab Tak Chappan actress Gul Panag was blessed with a baby boy six months back. The actress chose to keep her pregnancy under wraps and named her little bundle of joy, Nihal.
Gul Panag got married to pilot Rishi Attari seven years ago and Nihal is the couple’s first child. While the actress kept her pregnancy and her little boy a secret, she now opened up about her new role in life and how she is feeling special being a mother. Panag told Mumbai Mirror, “Rishi and I have always valued our privacy. Becoming parents is a special experience and we decided that we’d like to go through it without the distraction of public attention. Family and close friends knew about Nihal but we refrained from posting anything on the social media.”
The actress also explained the meaning of her son Nihal’s name. “Nihal means joy, success, and victory that comes with the blessings of God. Rishi and I believe that leading principled, good lives leads to true and lasting success so the name resonated with us,” she said.
Just like every new mother, Gul Panag is also facing sleepless nights with her six-month-old baby and says that these last few months have been a roller coaster ride for her.
Just recently, Gul Panag was in the news as her tweet led two Punjabi traffic policemen getting honoured for their work.
