The Growing Family

Gauahar and Zaid, who is the son of music composer Ismail Darbar, tied the knot in December 2020. They welcomed their first child, Zehaan, in May 2023. This past April, Gauahar announced her second pregnancy with a fun video on Instagram where she and Zaid danced to Jessie J’s “Price Tag,” with Gauahar showing off her baby bump.

The couple’s journey to parenthood has been a public one, and this latest announcement brings another happy chapter to their story, with their family of three now becoming a family of four.
