Asin and Rahul had kept their relationship under the wraps and following the trend of secrets, the couple had managed to keep their pregnancy a secret from media and their fans.

Over the two-and-a-half-years, Asin Thottumkal and Rahul Sharma had kept their daughter, Arin away from the media spotlight and very rarely post pictures of her on their respective social media handles. But thanks to lockdown, the proud mother, Asin has been delighting her fans with glimpses of her little one's painting, cooking, cleaning sessions amongst other activities. And every picture of Arin leaves a big smile on our faces! A few hours back, Asin posted pictures of her 'wizard', Arin and now we know how she manages to make everyone smile. Looks like that’s her superpower!
Since Arin’s birth, on the occasions like Onam and Christmas, which hold a special significance in their family, Asin Thottumkal had wished her fans with some drool-worthy pictures of her ‘angelic baby girl’. To mark Christmas 2018, Asin had posted pictures from her daughter, Arin’s first Christmas when she was just two-month-old. Asin had captioned them as “#Throwback Same time last year - Arin’s 1st Christmas- 2 months old #piecesofmyheart.” Later, she had posted an IG story of Arin’s second Christmas celebration, in which we can see her cuddled in her daddy, Rahul’s arms adoring the decorated tree. On Onam 2019, Asin had posted a throwback picture of Arin’s first Onam when she was 10-month-old. Looking like her mother in a traditional lehenga, Asin captioned Arin’s Onam special picture as “#throwback to last year- Arin’s 1st Onam, 10months old #ourlilprincess.” (Also Read: Sania Mirza's Baby Boy, Izhaan Mirza Malik Teaches His 'Khaala', Anam Mirza 'How To Take Baby Steps')

When Arin had turned 2 on October 24, 2019, her doting parents, Asin Thottumkal and Rahul Sharma had organised an aquatic theme party for their little one, with the décor following the theme of blue and white. Dressed in a frock of her favourite colour blue with a white coloured shrug and her hair tied in a ponytail, Arin had looked super-adorable. Asin had captioned her birthday pictures as “2 years #Happy2ndBirthdayArin #babysfavouriteblue #latergram.”
Did you know it was Asin Thottumkal’s Housefull co-star, Akshay Kumar, who had played Cupid for the couple? In a throwback interview with the Hindustan Times, Akshay had stated, “I’ve been hiding this for three-and-a-half to four years. Yes, I got them to meet and Jacqueline (Fernandez; actor) was also a part of it, but she didn’t realise it because I played it very slyly. It was during Housefull 2 and we were in Delhi. Don’t laugh, but we were playing hide and seek, and I made the two of them hide together in one cupboard. That is how it started and it is so nice that they are getting married now.”
And it was Akshay Kumar, who had posted the first-ever picture of Asin Thottumkal and Rahul Sharma’s newborn baby girl. Congratulating Asin and Rahul on the arrival of their little angel, Akshay had written, “One joy which is completely unmatched... congratulations to my dearest friends @simply.asin and Rahul on the arrival of their little angel.” Then on Asin’s first birthday after becoming a mother, Rahul had posted an unseen picture from their pregnancy photoshoot and had thanked his wife for giving him the most precious gift of his life. Rahul had tweeted, “It's your birthday and I got the most precious gift, the cutest yawns and sparkly eyes! ThankYou for completing our world #HappyBirthdayAsin.” (Also Read: Sayali Bhagat Of 'The Train' Fame Announces She Has Embraced Motherhood And Introduces Her Baby Girl)
