Actors and one of B-town's beloved couple Rajkummar Rao and Patralekhaa have shared a heart-melting update that has instantly warmed the internet. Months after welcoming their first child, the much-loved Bollywood couple has finally revealed their baby girl's name; one that carries deep spiritual meaning and a beautiful personal connection to both parents.

On Sunday, Rajkummar and Patralekhaa took to Instagram to make the announcement in the most tender way possible.

What does the name means?
The name Parvati is rich in cultural and spiritual significance. Rooted in Sanskrit, it translates to "Daughter of the Mountain," derived from the word Parvata, meaning mountain.
In Hindu mythology, Goddess Parvati is revered as the consort of Lord Shiva and is considered a powerful manifestation of Shakti, symbolising strength, compassion, fertility and divine feminine energy.
What makes the name even more special is how it weaves together both parents’ identities. Paul comes from Patralekhaa’s surname, while Rao represents Rajkummar’s family name.
