What fans said about Deepika, Ranveer's baby's name

Now taking to X (formerly Twitter), a fan said, "In the world of baby names like Raha Kapoor, Jeh Ali Khan, Akaay Kohli, being a Dua Padukone Singh is something the society needs.

The person said, "Wow, Dua Padukone Singh is actually carrying so many people's legacy." Another fan pointed out that the 'A' was from Ranveer's mother, Anju Bhavnani's name. "It’s the 3 mothers- Deepika, Ujjala and Anju," they wrote. "This feels so great," read a comment.
