The duo got married in December last year, and the news of Ginni’s pregnancy started doing the rounds in July. Kapil later confirmed the news to Mumbai Mirror, when he said, “I just want to take care of my wife, and be by her side for now. We are obviously very excited as it’s our first kid but my mother is most excited. She has been waiting for this moment for years now. We are just praying for Ginni and the baby’s health.” The couple had also gone to Canada for their babymoon. Celebrities were prompt to wish the couple and shower good wishes.
