Dinesh Karthik- Dipika welcome third baby, a girl; Virat Kohli & others send blessings

Cricketer Dinesh Karthik and squash champion Dipika Pallikal have added a beautiful new chapter to their lives as they welcomed their baby girl, Raaha Pallikal Karthik. The couple shared the heartwarming news through a joint social media post, expressing deep gratitude and happiness.

Their message felt intimate and full of warmth, as they introduced Raaha as the newest member of their growing family. What made the announcement even sweeter was the mention of their twin sons, Kabir and Zian, who are already embracing their roles as doting older brothers. The joy in their words reflected a home filled with love, laughter, and now, a little more chaos in the best way possible.

A journey of love, family, and milestones

Dinesh and Dipika’s story has always been one of balance between sport, personal life, and shared dreams. The couple got married on August 25, 2015, celebrating their union with both Hindu and Christian ceremonies, beautifully blending traditions.

In 2021, they stepped into parenthood with the arrival of their twins, marking a major life shift. Now, with Raaha’s arrival, their family feels even more complete. Over the years, they have often given glimpses of their life beyond the spotlight—moments that show how they juggle demanding careers while building a nurturing home.

Their journey hasn’t just been about achievements on the field or court, but also about evolving together as partners and parents.

Power couple balancing passion and parenthood

Even as their family grows, both continue to shine in their respective worlds. Dinesh Karthik, after an impressive international career, has smoothly transitioned into mentoring and commentary. He is currently part of the Royal Challengers Bengaluru setup, working as the team’s batting coach and guiding young talent.

Dipika, on the other hand, remains one of India’s most celebrated squash players. From breaking into the world’s top rankings to winning medals at global events, her journey continues to inspire. Her recent successes, including a gold at the Asian Games and strong performances post-motherhood, speak volumes about her resilience.

With Raaha now in their lives, the couple steps into a new phase.
