Actor Tanuj Virwani and his wife Tanya Jacob are expecting their first child. The baby is due in September. In an exclusive conversation with NDTV's Hardika Gupta, the actor spoke about his initial reaction after learning about his wife's pregnancy.
He also shared that he is "extremely excited" to embrace fatherhood. Tanuj said, "We are excited. Tanya is due towards the end of September.
Ever since Tanya and I decided that we wanted to settle down and have this life together, having kids was definitely part of the conversation. It wasn't a matter of 'let's see what happens.' By November, I'll be 38, Tanya is 32 now and will turn 33 in October, so we felt it was the right time.
Plus, we go way back and know each other well enough." Tanuj shared that it was a "planned pregnancy" and added, "It was planned. We were trying, and I guess we just lucked out sooner than expected.
When she did the home test and told me, 'I'm pregnant,' it was the most unbelievable, surreal feeling. We were both really over the moon. It was an emotional moment.
We weren't in Bombay at the time, but when we got back, we told both my parents and then went to the gynecologist. When you get confirmation, go through ultrasounds, and hear everything, you think, 'Oh my god, this is actually happening.' It's been a beautiful few months, and I truly consider myself very fortunate.
" When asked if he's nervous or excited about the new chapter, the Yodha actor said, "I'm not nervous at all-I'm super excited. Where.
