She surprised husband Kunal Verma with the news in a vlog shared in April 2026, and later told her extended family. Puja and Kunal, who registered their marriage in April 2020 and had a Bengali wedding in Goa on November 15, 2021, already have a daughter named Sana. Puja wrote that Sana will soon be a big sister. She has often said she always wished for two children and is taking a break from television to give her full attention to family. Her delivery is expected around June 2026.

Our first Valentine’s Day in the same country in almost four years, and the last one we’ll ever spend as just two.” Krissan married UK based Nathan in October 2023 and had white and Hindu ceremonies in April 2024.

From June deliveries for Surbhi Jyoti and Divyanka Tripathi to an August due date for Karishma Tanna, and from Puja Banerjee’s second baby news to the first time joy of Aasiya Kazi and Krissan Barreto, television’s 2026 calendar is marked by maternity milestones. Each announcement has been met with affection, whether through surprise vlogs, newspaper style reveals, or intimate photoshoots with tiny shoes. As these actresses balance health, family, and work, their audiences are celebrating alongside them. The small screen has always thrived on emotion, and this year it is also thriving on hope, fresh starts, and the promise of the tiniest cast members becoming the biggest stars at home.
