Mumbai: Bharti Singh, one of India’s favorite comedians, has now shocked many when she claims that she is in a family way. In an interview, she claimed that one knew that she was seven weeks into her pregnancy in which case she continued taking alcohol simply because she was not aware of her condition.
Bharti Singh who is often in the news because of her comedy stunts told some Indian media how she came to know about this nothing which most people want to know.
The Surprising Discovery
In the course of her interview with her, Bharti Singh recounted a particular evening when she was out drinking with her husband, Harsh Limbachiyaa, and some friends. As with most other social occasions, there was some light drinking during the evening. Unknown to her, she had already conceived by then.
Bharti narrates that the following day, she woke up and felt a little weird. As it turned out, and much to her shock, taking a pregnancy test yielded positive results. Recalling the episode, she shared that ‘I was like wow! I was so surprised about the news that I am pregnant.’
After receiving the news of being pregnant, she wasted no time in telling her husband. ‘When I broke the news to Harsh, he could not believe it, in a good way. He was ecstatic and we were all smiling,’ she remarked. Shortly after, however, she decided to call up comedian Kapil Sharma’s wife and announce the good news.
A Baffling Revelation of Seven Weeks
As Bharti Singh went on today, there was also a bit of discomfort that even though she got the news of pregnancy that very day, she found it hard to accept that she had been pregnant for 7 weeks without her knowing. To verify this, she saw her physician who did some investigations and told her that, yes, you are 7 weeks pregnant.
“I had been alcohol-ing without knowing that it would affect me during the pregnancy,” Bharti said to the doctor while feeling distressed about her baby. However, the doctor calmed her down but ordered that she should abstain from alcohol abuse henceforth. “Then the doctor put me in the hot seat and said: ‘Now you must take extra care of yourself, avoid alcohol, and follow a good diet for the sake of the baby,’” she recalled.
Harsh’s Support Throughout the Pregnancy
Bharti Singh also took a few minutes to appreciate her husband’s support throughout her pregnancy. She said that she was very thankful for how Harsh did his best to help her out physically and emotionally during such times.
“Harsh was a pillar of strength for me during this time,” she said. “He took care of every basic necessity, which included my meals and my mental well being. Because of his loving and active participation, the whole experience was manageable.”
Bharti underlined the necessity of having a supportive partner during this changing hour in her life. While understanding the potential emotional hurdles that pregnancy might bring, she, however, appreciated Harsh, her husband for being so accommodating that it was the case with her.
Bharti Singh and Harsh Limbachiyaa’s Journey
After courting for several years, Bharti Singh and Harsh Limbachiyaa tied the knot in the year 2017. Close friends and the who’s who of the entertainment industry had graced the lavish wedding.
In April 2022 the couple got to welcome their first child together. Looking back to motherhood, Bharti has always been vocal in saying how she has led her life after their baby was born. She has taken the challenge of being a mother head-on while pursuing her career as a comedian.
Life After Motherhood
As busy as she is with her career Bharti Singh has taken to posting some of her mothering moments on social media. Family life is fulfilling for her, and there is little doubt that the joys of being a mother have been one of her ultimate achievements in life.
But, it is not that her career has been grounded. Even after being a parent, Bharti has been out cracking jokes and making people laugh which is quite an indicator of how well she has balanced the two worlds.
Most women are unable to achieve their career targets and handle motherhood maximally, but Bharti in her most recent interview explains why it is possible to be successful on both fronts.
Pregnancy is a rarity in the case of a rising comic entertainer like Bharti Singh. Though there is initial shock and concern, her case demonstrates the need to go to the doctor and the availability of help to such a person. While Bharti Singh and Harsh Limbachiya rejoice in parenthood, they also exemplify how with teamwork, even the most unpleasant of surprises can be made to appear less unpleasant.
