New Delhi, january 27, 2026: The start of 2026 has brought a wave of joy for Bollywood power couple Randeep Hooda and Lin Laishram. On Monday, January 26, the couple hosted an intimate and soulful baby shower in Mumbai, surrounded by their closest family and friends. The celebration comes as the pair prepares to welcome their first child, expected to arrive in March 2026.
Lin, who has been widely praised for her effortless maternity style, looked absolutely radiant at the event. For the ceremony, she chose a graceful grey and gold saree paired with a vibrant pink embroidered blouse. Her “pregnancy glow” was the talk of social media as she proudly flaunted her baby bump in the traditional attire. Randeep complemented her perfectly, keeping it classic and understated in a simple white kurta-pajama.
The venue was a reflection of the couple’s love for simplicity and tradition. Eschewing flashy decorations, the space was adorned with fresh banana leaves and marigold flowers, creating a warm, organic atmosphere that echoed their 2023 Meitei wedding ceremony in Manipur.
While the ceremony followed traditional rituals—including blessings from friends like actress Priya Malik—it wasn’t without its playful moments. One particular photo shared by Lin on Instagram quickly went viral: the parents-to-be sat back-to-back, holding tiny baby socks like toy guns, a nod to their sense of humor and Randeep’s “action star” persona.
This celebration is especially meaningful for the couple. In recent interviews, Lin bravely opened up about the emotional toll of suffering a miscarriage in early 2025. She described the current pregnancy as a “beautiful gift” that they are guarding with deep gratitude.
Randeep, known for his intense roles on screen, has reportedly taken on a much softer role at home. Lin shared that he has been incredibly hands-on, researching everything from emotional health to baby essentials and attending every doctor’s visit.
“He was happy, nervous, excited, and deeply moved all at once,” Lin recalled of the moment they found out they were expecting.
The couple first shared their happy news back in November 2025 on their second wedding anniversary with the caption: “Two years of love, adventure, and now… a little wild one on the way.”
As March approaches, the nursery is reportedly the main topic of conversation in the Hooda-Laishram household. While they haven’t settled on a name yet, the couple is soaking in every moment of this “new adventure.”
