Athiya Shetty shares rare glimpses of life with KL Rahul and baby Evaarah to celebrate his birthday

On KL Rahul’s 34th birthday, Athiya Shetty gave fans a glimpse into a love story that has quietly blossomed over the years, wrapped in warmth, companionship, and now, parenthood. Taking to Instagram, the actor shared a series of candid, never-seen-before pictures that felt less like a celebrity post and more like pages from a personal diary.

Alongside the photos, Athiya kept her words simple yet deeply felt, calling Rahul “my person” and ending her note with a heartfelt “love you so much,” sealed with a red heart. It wasn’t elaborate, but it didn’t need to be. The emotion sat right there, unfiltered.

A Love Story That Grew in Its Own Time

Athiya and KL Rahul’s journey began in 2019, when they met through a mutual friend. What started as an easy connection slowly turned into something more solid and enduring. Over the years, the two kept their relationship largely private, letting it evolve away from the noise.

In 2023, they made it official with an intimate wedding at Suniel Shetty’s Khandala farmhouse. The ceremony reflected their personality, low-key, elegant, and deeply personal. No grand spectacle, just close family, close friends, and a moment that mattered.

From Partners to Parents

Their story took a new turn with the arrival of their daughter, Evaarah. The couple revealed her name on Rahul’s previous birthday, making the occasion even more special. The name, meaning “Gift of God,” feels fitting for how they’ve described her, “our everything.”

The birthday post this year quietly carried that shift. Among the glimpses were tender father-daughter moments, Rahul holding his baby girl while Athiya watched on, a picture of stillness and joy. It’s these small, intimate frames that stood out the most, not staged, not polished, just real.

Having stepped away from films after Motichoor Chaknachoor, Athiya Shetty has shifted focus to family life, while KL Rahul is currently busy in the Indian Premier League, playing for Delhi Capitals led by Axar Patel.
