Sidharth Malhotra Praises Kiara Advani for Her Strength As a New Mother

Actor Sidharth Malhotra recently opened up about his journey into parenthood with wife Kiara Advani, praising her strength and courage as a new mother. The couple welcomed their daughter in July this year, and Sidharth expressed deep admiration for Kiara while speaking about the beautiful yet challenging experience.

Sidharth Malhotra spoke lovingly about his wife Kiara Advani and how proud he feels watching her step into motherhood. The couple, who tied the knot in February 2023 in an intimate ceremony at Suryagarh Palace in Jaisalmer, welcomed their first child, a daughter, on July 15, 2025. They recently revealed that they have named her Saraayah Malhotra.

Sidharth shared that the name carries a special meaning. He explained that Saraayah is not a Hindi name but a Hebrew one, meaning “Princess of God.” The actor said the name felt personal and unique, just like the experience of becoming parents for the first time.

Speaking about Kiara, Sidharth shared how inspiring it has been to watch her handle pregnancy and motherhood. He said, “Her, my daughter being the superstar, my wife being the superhero, you know, the process of just seeing her through pregnancy and birth is an eye-opening experience for me that, you know, men always talk about courage and grit and, you know, strength, but women actually demonstrate it when they become mothers. I’ve seen her during pregnancy go through hormonal changes, physical changes, and now she’s being a true superhero, taking care of Sarayah, and I’m contributing a little bit with changing diapers and clicking pictures or just trying to keep a happy environment.”
