Kiara and Sidharth became parents to a baby girl on July 15, 2025. The actress was admitted to HN Reliance Hospital in Mumbai's Girgaon area for the delivery, with the baby arriving earlier than expected.
Kiara has previously spoken about how becoming a mother changed her outlook on life. In an interview with Raj Shamani, she said motherhood had transformed her “in every way” and made her more conscious of setting an example for her daughter.
“There’s so much more purpose in everything you do. I’m constantly thinking of leading by example for my daughter,” she said.
She also spoke about the demands of motherhood and acknowledged the amount of work done by mothers and homemakers, saying it was more than people could imagine.
Kiara and Sidharth married on February 7, 2023, in an intimate ceremony at Suryagarh Palace in Rajasthan. More than three years after their wedding, the couple are now preparing to welcome another addition to their family.
