Salman Khan's 54th birthday turned out to be doubly special for him as his sister Arpita Khan gave birth to a baby girl on the same day. In fact, Arpita and he husband Aayush Sharma had planned to deliver the baby on December 27 -- to make it more special for Salman.
Doting father Aayush has posted first pictures of Ayat (yes, that's the name of the baby girl). And the picture has gone viral within hours.
Aayush took to his Instagram and shared pictures of the newborn baby who looked cute as a button. The photos also had Arpita and their son Ahil in the frame.
"Welcome to this beautiful world Ayat. You’ve brought a lot of happiness into our lives. May you touch everyone’s life with a lot of love and joy," Aayush wrote.
Aayush had earlier announced the name of the baby girl.
"We’ve been blessed with a beautiful baby girl. Thank you so much for all the love and blessings for Ayat Sharma," he wrote.
An official statement was also issued by the family. "With great joy and immense pleasure, we announce that we have been blessed with a baby girl. On this joyous occasion, we would like to thank our family, friends and all our well-wishers for their unconditional support. We also extended a humble thank you to our media friends and to our fans for their constant love and support. This journey couldn’t have been complete without you all. Lots of Love, Aayush, Arpita & Ahil/ Khan & Sharma Family," it read.
While celebrating his birthday with media, Salman said the name Ayat was suggested by his father Salim Khan for his child.
Arpita and Aayush Sharma tied the knot in 2014 at Hyderabad's Taj Falaknuma Palace. The couple welcomed Ahil, their first child in March, 2016. Aayush Sharma, who made his debut with Loveyatri, is shooting for Kwatha, which also features Katrina Kaif's sister Isabelle Kaif.
