New Delhi [India], December 26: In a heartwarming Christmas post, Bollywood actor Varun Dhawan and his wife Natasha Dalal shared their first-ever family photo featuring their daughter, Lara, on Christmas 2024.
The picture, shared by Varun on social media, showcases the joy of the couple’s first Christmas as parents. The family photo, taken in front of a beautifully decorated Christmas tree, captures a cheerful moment, with little Lara sitting comfortably in the picture. Although the couple did not reveal Lara’s face, she was dressed adorably in a red frock, paired with socks and a cute Santa-themed hairband. Varun wore red tracks and a white t-shirt, while Natasha opted for an all-white outfit. Adding to the family spirit, Varun also held their pet dog, Joey, in the picture.
Captioning the heartwarming moment, Varun wrote, “Me with my babies. Merry Christmas.”
Varun and Natasha welcomed their first child, Lara, in June 2024, and the new parents have been soaking in the joys of parenthood ever since. While promoting his latest film, Baby John, Varun shared his experience of fatherhood, expressing his desire to create content that appeals to children. He said, “Even early in my career, I would always focus on creating films that kids can watch, enjoy, and smile at. I want to make films that children can enjoy.”
In a candid chat on a talk show, Varun humorously shared how fatherhood has changed his life, saying, “I used to get scolded by one woman before, but now I get scolded by two. I’m learning how to burp her, how to swaddle her. Sometimes when she cries, I feel terrified. Late at night when I’m exhausted and she starts crying, I pretend to get up, but Natasha beats me to it and goes to soothe her.”
The couple had previously announced the birth of their daughter, Lara, in June 2024, with a touching Instagram post. Varun shared a video featuring their pet dog Joey holding a placard that read, “Welcome Lil sis,” alongside the caption, “Our Baby Girl Is Here,” expressing immense joy and gratitude for their growing family.
On the professional front, Varun Dhawan is keeping busy with his versatile roles. His latest action film, Baby John, released on Christmas Day, and he is also set to star in the upcoming film Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari alongside Janhvi Kapoor.
