Rohit Sharma and Ritika Sajdeh, who tied the knot in 2015, have welcomed a new member into their family. The couple, already parents to a daughter, Samaira (born in 2018), were blessed with a baby boy in 2024, completing their happy family. Recently, Ritika shared the little one’s name in the most heartwarming way, leaving fans delighted. Interestingly, the name has a charming similarity to Virat Kohli’s son, Akaay.
Ritika’s Creative Baby Name Announcement
Taking to Instagram, Ritika unveiled the name of their son, Ahaan, through a delightful photo of her Christmas decorations. Atop their Christmas tree, a miniature house with caricatures of their family members — Ritika, Rohit, Samaira, and the new baby — was beautifully displayed. Each caricature had their name labeled: Rits for Ritika, Ro for Rohit, Sammy for Samaira, and Ahaan for the baby boy. While it’s unclear if Ahaan is a nickname or his full name, fans found it incredibly endearing.
A Glimpse of the Little One’s Essentials
On November 1, 2024, Ritika shared an Instagram story featuring a pair of tiny, furry winter shoes, hinting at the new addition to their family. However, the couple has yet to share a full glimpse of their baby boy.
A F.R.I.E.N.D.S-Themed Birth Announcement
Rohit Sharma announced the arrival of their baby boy on November 16, 2024, in a unique F.R.I.E.N.D.S-inspired way. A poster featuring the family of four sitting on the iconic couch from the American sitcom was shared on his Instagram. The announcement read, “F.A.M.I.L.Y, the one where we are four,” echoing the series’ signature episode naming style. This creative reveal showcased Rohit and Ritika’s love for the popular show.
As soon as Rohit announced the news, fans flooded the comments with congratulatory messages, lovingly dubbing the baby “Junior Hitman.” Cricket enthusiasts couldn’t help but imagine Ahaan and Virat Kohli’s son, Akaay, forming a friendship as legendary as their fathers’.
