Former actress, Sana Khan is married to a Gujarat-based businessman, Mufti Anas Saiyad. Now, the madly-in-love duo are all set to embrace parenthood for the first time. As per reports, the actress' delivery date is due in June 2023. And it was on April 16, 2023, when she was spotted for the first time flaunting her baby bump. Now, Sana opened up about how she fasted very easily, even during the third trimester of her pregnancy and why she wanted to fast at this time.
In an interview with the Hindustan Times, Sana Khan revealed how she used to celebrate Eid with her hubby, Mufti Anas Saiyad, in Saudi Arabia every year. However, this time, she would celebrate the festival in Mumbai. Moreover, she opened up about why she wanted to fast even during her pregnancy and talked about the special ritual, which reveals that if anyone used to fast during pregnancy, it is counted as double. She elaborated:
“Every year, I am in Saudi [Arabia] with my husband for the festival. This year, I am going home for Eid. Usually, we cook, feast and enjoy, all of which we will do in Mumbai this time around. I wanted to do it (keeping fasts). It is said that fasts are counted for two people if you are pregnant. So, 30 rozas mean 60 rozas for a pregnant woman.”

In the same conversation, Sana revealed how initially she was scared to observe the fast. And unlike the first five-six months of her pregnancy, when she constantly felt nauseous, her third trimester is much more peaceful. Thus, the Bigg Boss famed former actress mentioned:
“Whenever I used to look at my cousins fasting during pregnancy, I never thought I would be able to be in the same spot. In fact, I was puking for the first five-six months of my pregnancy. I kept praying to not experience the same during Ramzan. My in-laws and husband were also not sure if I should do it, but I wanted to. And I haven’t had many cravings during my third trimester, so I was able to keep the fasts smoothly.”
On April 16, 2023, Sana Khan attended Baba Siddique’s grand Iftaar party along with her hubby, Mufti Anas Saiyad. This was the first time when Sana was papped in public, post announcing her pregnancy. In the glimpses, she was wearing a black-hued abaya, which featured shimmery designs all over it. She kept her look minimal and was seen radiating her pregnancy glow. Moreover, her pregnancy glow was fully visible.
