Zaheer Khan and Sagarika Ghatge have officially welcomed their first child, a baby boy named Fatehsinh Khan. The couple announced the joyful news on social media on Wednesday, April 16, 2025, sharing heartwarming photos and expressing their gratitude for the blessings in their lives.
In their Instagram post, Sagarika wrote, "With love, gratitude and divine blessings we welcome our precious little baby boy, Fatehsinh Khan." The photos shared alongside the announcement capture a tender moment between the new parents and their baby. One image shows Zaheer cradling Fatehsinh on his lap, while Sagarika lovingly embraces her husband. Another photo highlights the tiny hands of their newborn, symbolizing the beginning of a beautiful journey into parenthood.
The announcement has been met with an outpouring of love and congratulations from fans and friends alike. Celebrities including Huma Qureshi, Diana Penty, and Harbhajan Singh were quick to express their joy in the comments. Angad Bedi, a close friend of the couple, simply wrote, "Waheguru," while others sent heart emojis and warm wishes to the new family.
Zaheer and Sagarika, who have been married since November 2017, have shared their journey together openly, often highlighting their supportive relationship. In previous interviews, Sagarika revealed that Zaheer proposed to her during the IPL, a moment that marked the start of their shared life. They have navigated their inter-faith marriage with grace, supported by their progressive families. Sagarika reflected on this, stating, "I think it was important to find the right human being who I could share my life with."
The couple's path to parenthood has been a closely guarded secret, and their surprise announcement has left many thrilled. While they have not disclosed much about the pregnancy or delivery details, the arrival of Fatehsinh marks a significant milestone in their lives.
Interestingly, the name Fatehsinh carries a profound meaning. In Sanskrit, "Fateh" translates to victory, while "Sinh" means lion, symbolizing strength and bravery. This choice reflects the couple's hopes for their son as he embarks on his journey through life.
In addition to their personal lives, Zaheer Khan remains active in the cricketing world as a mentor for the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in the ongoing IPL 2025 season. Despite facing a narrow five-wicket defeat to Chennai Super Kings, Zaheer's leadership continues to inspire the team. In a recent pep talk, he emphasized the importance of resilience, stating, "Games like this help build belief. We were in the game right till the end. That’s what matters—how we stand up as a team."
As the LSG prepares for their next match against Rajasthan Royals on April 19, 2025, the team sits fourth on the points table, with four wins from seven games. Zaheer's experience and guidance will undoubtedly play a crucial role as they aim to bounce back stronger.
The couple's journey, from their initial meeting through mutual friends to their marriage and now parenthood, has been a story of love and support. Zaheer, once shy, found his voice with Sagarika's encouragement, and their bond has only deepened over the years. Their love story, marked by mutual respect and understanding, has now expanded to include their son, Fatehsinh.
As they embark on this new chapter, Zaheer and Sagarika's fans and friends eagerly await more updates and glimpses into their lives as parents. The couple's commitment to sharing their experiences will surely resonate with many who follow their journey.
In the world of cricket and entertainment, where both Zaheer and Sagarika have made their marks, the arrival of their son adds another layer of joy and excitement. As they navigate the challenges and joys of parenthood, their story serves as an inspiration to many, reminding us of the beauty of family and love.
With their hearts full of gratitude and love, Zaheer Khan and Sagarika Ghatge are ready to embrace this new adventure as a family, welcoming Fatehsinh Khan into a world filled with endless possibilities.
