Bollywood stars Kareena Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan welcomed their second child, a baby boy, on 21 February at Mumbai’s Breach Candy Hospital. Soon after Kareena Kapoor’s delivery, her parents Randhir and Babita Kapoor, sister Karisma Kapoor and son Taimur Ali Khan were seen visiting the hospital. Kareena’s father Randhir Kapoor confirmed the news to the media adding that the family is overjoyed. Two days after welcoming his second child, Saif Ali Khan has now issued his first statement thanking fans and well-wishes for showering love on their newborn. He also shared that Kareena and the baby are safe and healthy. In the statement, he said, “We have been blessed with a baby boy. Mom and baby are safe and healthy.
