Bollywood’s power couple, Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh, have welcomed their daughter on September 8, 2024, and named her Dua, which means “prayer.” Famous for their private life when it comes to family, the couple has kept their daughter out of the limelight. Fans are waiting with bated breath for the first look at the little one, but the couple has still not shown Dua’s face. Earlier this month, some photos had gone viral on social media where Deepika was spotted holding a baby, leaving everyone wondering if the baby was Dua.
AI-Generated Photos Spark Confusion
The viral photos, posted by Deepika’s fan club, feature the actress holding a baby and dressed in similar attire. But the child’s face is still not revealed, and the pictures were soon recognized as AI-generated. Though most fans thought the photos were endearing, some eagle-eyed followers detected discrepancies indicating artificial intelligence tampering. “Deepika ka original page nahi hai, ye AI,” a user said, indicating the photos were not original. In December 2024 itself, such AI-generated photographs of the family—featuring Ranveer, Deepika, and Dua—had also become viral.

Private Meet-and-Greet with the Media
Deepika and Ranveer arranged a private meet-and-greet with the Mumbai paparazzi in December 2024 to welcome their daughter. The couple made sure the occasion was close-knit and sacred, ensuring no cameras or mobile phones were present. Only the couple’s own phones were utilized to take photographs with the media professionals, keeping the moment intimate.
Deepika’s First Appearance After Dua’s Birth
After the birth of Dua, Deepika had a break from her work commitments. Her first appearance after September was at the 25th anniversary of Cartier in the Middle East. Deepika dazzled in stunning black flowy gown by JADE by Monica and Karishma as she made a comeback to the glamour world after months of maternity leave.
