Pooja Banerjee and Sandeep Sejwal welcome baby girl, her brother Neil Banerjee confirms

Actor Pooja Banerjee and her husband, swimmer Sandeep Sejwal have become parents to a baby girl. Pooja’s brother Neil Banerjee said that Sandeep and the baby’s grandmother are with Pooja in the hospital.

Pooja had last year in November revealed that she had learnt about her pregnancy while on the sets of Kumkum Bhagya, her television show. Last month she quit the show and had shared videos from the sets on Instagram.

In January this year, Pooja spoke with Hindustan Times about stepping away from the show. “I haven’t told the makers of my show that I am quitting as of now.

If the cases are too many and if there is a scare then I might have to take a break and it will be a forced break long before I planned. But health comes first, I can’t help it. If it comes to that then you have to do it,” she had shared.

On Saturday, Pooja’s brother, Neil Banerjee told Times Of India, “We are in Nagpur right now, and we are extremely thrilled with this new addition to our family. Everyone in our family is in celebratory mode. Baby’s father and daadi (grandmother) are by Pooja’s side in the hospital.

We too can’t wait to see the baby and shall visit her soon.” Neil said that the baby was a girl and was born on Saturday morning in Mumbai.

Last month speaking with Time Of India, Pooja had said, “We have decided that after I deliver our baby, we will travel to Delhi to be with our extended family.

I think having so many people around would be a blessing. Everyone will shower the baby with love. I have been brought up in a nuclear family so this would be really exciting.” She had added that she will resume work after that.

Earlier in Pooja had spoken about 2022. “There are so many different kinds of feelings. The plan mode is on and we are literally organizing right from the house, cupboards, clothes, taking care of finances, and work. There is so much organizing work that we are doing continuously,” she had said.
