Actress Shilpa Shetty Kundra, who is married to businessman Raj Kundra, has announced the birth of their second child on Twitter. They've named her “Samisha Shetty Kundra”.
Shilpa shared a picture of the hands of the newborn and wrote, "Om Shri Ganeshaya Namah. Our prayers have been answered with a miracle... With gratitude in our hearts, we are thrilled to announce the arrival of our little angel Samisha Shetty Kundra. Born: 15 February 2020. Junior SSK in the house."
The actress went on to explain the meaning of the name of the newborn.
"Sa in Sanskrit is 'to have', and Misha in Russian stands for 'someone like God'. You personify this name - our Goddess Laxmi, and complete our family. Please bestow our angel with all your love and blessings. Ecstatic parents: Raj and Shilpa Shetty Kundra, Overjoyed brother: Viaan-Raj Kundra,” she wrote. In Russian, Misha is a friendly word for bear.

There is no confirmation from Shilpa or her husband on whether they opted for surrogacy or adopted their daughter, something which has set a major storm online:
Ma’am we didn’t know you were expecting a child until this day! Congratulations to you and your family!!!🎉💐💕
