It was on November 6, 2022, when Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor hopped on to the journey of parenthood with the arrival of their daughter, Raha Kapoor. Since the arrival of Raha, the couple has kept her away from the public eye and has also requested the media not to click her pictures and respect their privacy.
In a conversation with Vogue India, Alia Bhatt spoke about keeping Raha away from the public glare. Revealing how she is not comfortable having any sort of conversation around her baby, Alia stated:

“Ranbir and I are very clear on how long we don’t want Raha to be in the public eye for. We don’t even want to post her pictures on social media. I just don’t feel comfortable with any sort of conversation around my little baby right now. There have been so many good wishes, so many blessings. I’m constantly referred to as Raha’s mommy, which I love and find it very cute. But that’s all I’m okay with right now. I’m very protective of the people I love. And I genuinely don’t think that a baby needs to be a public personality. Again, that’s my opinion right now.”

In the same conversation, Alia stated that the media has been very respectful in maintaining Raha’s privacy and said:
“We’ll take each day as it comes. We also have to be practical as individuals in the public eye. And it’s not like we’re saying nobody can see her ever. It’s just for now. And people have mostly been very respectful about that. I genuinely believe that we are one industry. The paparazzi are like my work family and they have been very respectful. When I travelled back from London last month, all of them put their cameras away immediately at the airport. Not a single picture of Raha was circulated."
It was on November 24, 2022, Alia Bhatt shared the first-ever glimpse of her newborn baby girl and revealed her unique name. In the family portrait, we could see daddy Ranbir Kapoor holding the baby while Alia looked at her lovingly. We could also see a beautifully framed picture of the baby's Barcelona jersey with 'Raha' written on it. Along with the picture, Alia shared that her daughter's unique name was chosen by her wise dadi, Neetu Kapoor.
