Sharing the news through a heartfelt message, the couple expressed gratitude for the love, prayers and blessings they have received and sought continued affection and good wishes as they begin this precious journey together.
“A beautiful new chapter begins. As we step into the journey of parenthood, our hearts are filled with gratitude for all the love, prayers and blessings that have brought us here. We feel truly blessed and look forward to this precious journey with your continued love and blessings,” the message read.
The announcement marks a significant personal milestone for the couple, who have also worked together in the Odia film industry.
