Actor Anita Hassanandani and husband Rohit Reddy are all set to welcome their first child. They took to Instagram on Saturday evening and made the big announcement through a video, where the two depict different phases of their courtship, marriage, and then she reveals her baby bump. Excitement is palpable in her voice when we talk to her, “Excited, thrilled, nervous — what else right now!” The duo was helped by the Covid-19 lockdown to keep the news a secret till this point. Hassanandani says she got to know about the pregnancy in the first month itself, and she is due in February 2021.
While Anita made her debut in Hindi with Subhash Ghai’s Aishwarya Rai, Anil Kapoor and Akshaye Khanna starrer Taal, she rose to fame in 2001 when she made her debut in Telugu with Teja’s Nuvvu Nenu, starring Uday Kiran. Later the actress went on to act in many Bollywood, Tollywood and Kollywood films, remaining a popular actress in Telugu cinema. Her filmography includes some memorable work like Thotti Gang, Nenunnanu, Krishna Cottage and more. She tied the knot with entrepreneur Rohit Reddy in Goa in 2013 and this is their first child together. The actress had sparked pregnancy rumours in March this year with a cryptic post about cute babies. Back then Anita had told that they were just thinking about having babies, rubbishing rumours of surrogacy too later on.
