Answering “how she and Karan celebrated New Year with their little angel?”, Ankita revealed, “I didn't even realise when I jumped from 2019 to 2020. Everything is so hazy nowadays. Days are passing so fast. So, I don't think I have realised yet that the New Year has begun. Because I think my new year began last month itself when she came into our lives.” Ankita further revealed their New Year Eve’s celebration and said, “We were at home as we can't leave Mehr alone. Also, my closest friends came home. We were chilling and brought the new year very peacefully with hushed sounds because Mehr was sleeping in the other room.”
Ankita Bhargava also revealed how they reacted when they were informed that it’s a baby girl. She stated, “Of course. I was in Operation Theatre and Karan was with me inside. The moment doctor informed us that it's a baby girl we were overjoyed as both of us wanted a girl and it happened.” Sharing that they always wanted a baby girl, Ankita said, “Everyone was presuming that it's a boy. They used to tell me you are looking like this, walking like this. Karan and I used to just look at each other and share a smile that let them say whatever they think but if God is listening to us, then it has to be a girl. Not just me and Karan, our entire family wanted a baby girl.” (Suggested Read: Sara Ali Khan And Amrita Singh Look Adorable As They Take Ride On A Water-Scooter)

Revealing why she chose the name ‘Mehr’, Ankita stated, “Mehr is a blessing to me and Karan.

So, I thought to myself that yeh toh Babaji ki mehr hai and that's how the name was decided.” Revealing that their day starts with Mehr and ends with Mehr, Ankita how life has changed post the arrival of their baby girl. She said, “Hamara din Mehr se shuru hota hai and Mehr pe hi khatam hota hai. There is nothing else and nobody else on my mind. I try to accommodate Naughty in her schedule now because he is our first child and I have to balance both of them. I have to be with her all the time as she needs me the most.”
