Their announcement on Instagram recently has sparked joy among their followers. According to reports from a newswire, Ranveer, the soon-to-be father, has opted for an extended paternity leave.
The source revealed to the newswire that Deepika had already made arrangements to gradually wind down her work commitments in preparation for an extended paternity leave.
