Sumeet Vyas, Ekta Kaul on having a baby during Covid-19 outbreak

Sumeet Vyas and TV actress Ekta Kaul are over the moon as they are expecting their first child now. Amidst the novel Coronavirus crisis, Ekta announced this good news by sharing an adorable photo of the two with Sumeet planting a kiss to Kaul while holding onto her baby bump. Well, now they are bringing a life into this world, Sumeet admitted that his primary concern was what he would need to arrange for their child and if he’d be a good dad.

Speaking to Mumbai Mirror, Sumeet told the portal how Ekta decided to get pregnant, to which he said that it was Ekta’s call and since they all were hearing gloomy news, she felt it was time to bring some joy in people’s lives. Talking about his concerns, he was quoted saying, “Now, it’s safety. I don’t want our child to grow up in an environment where they can’t go out to play. But I’m an optimist and believe that this too shall pass.” On the other hand, Ekta is trying to stay positive despite the coronavirus scare. “I’m meditating, reading books and watching movies. Anyway, after all the household chores, you don’t get much time to think,” she said.

Sumeet talks about how happy he is to get all this time with his wife. “I don’t know when I will get alone time with her again, especially after our child is born. I always thought if I spent too much time with someone, we’d end up getting irritated. But we aren’t fighting much, so I guess that proves I’m not a bad companion,” Ekta chimes in, “He is a workaholic, so I’m sure he would never have thought of taking such a long break. But he’s been a real rock.”

Sumeet also informs that his aunt is a gynaecologist and so they are not too stressed about medical care as he quipped, “Fortunately, our last check-up was towards the end of February and the next one is in April-end. We’d want to have our baby in my aunt’s maternity hospital, but if the current scenario doesn’t improve, we might have to think of alternate options,"

Ekta also revealed “I felt like a rock star when I learnt the news on my return. I had gone to meet Sumeet who was shooting in Ladakh and wanted to explore the place. So, I made some friends with the crew and we all went for a bike ride. Throughout the trip, I was feeling slightly unwell and marked it down to altitude sickness.”

Sumeet made his Bollywood debut opposite Kareena Kapoor in Veere Di Wedding. He shot to fame with his web show Permanent Roommates, followed by TVF Tripling. Ekta has appeared on TV shows such as Bade Achhe Lagte Hain and Mere Angne Mein.
