Despite being busy with his professional commitments, Rohit Reddy had made sure to spend quality time with his then-expecting wife, Anita Hassanandani. Praising Rohit for being so supportive and sharing her firm belief in #ItTakes2 when it comes to parenting and pregnancy, Anita had written in a post on Instagram, “As a mom to be, I have never stood alone. My wonderful, supportive husband @rohitreddygoa has shared the jitters, joy and more importantly, the responsibility. In his own way, this daddy-to-be has gone through a tower of books, parenting videos and even gives me the right advice just when I need it! You see, #ItTakes2 and equal parenting is something we strongly believe in.”
Effectively shutting down the incessant talks about women and their 'ticking biological clock', Anita Hassanandani, who had conceived at the age of 39, had earlier shared in an interview with The Times of India, “The age-factor did play on my mind. Many people told me that it’s going to be tough, it overwhelms you. But once I conceived naturally, I realised that age is just a number. You need to be mentally and physically fit for everything to fall in place. Jo naseeb mein likha hota hai, woh toh hota hi hai.” Speaking of how she and Rohit had planned the baby when they were ‘ready’ and not when the society 'expected' them to have a child, Anita had said, “Today, Rohit and I feel well-settled — we are financially and mentally in a place where we are ready to have a child.” (Also Read: Twinkle Khanna Takes A Hilarious Dig On Her Name After Daughter Nitara Plays A Nursery Rhyme For Her)
