Neha Dhupia sings ‘happy birthday’ to sleeping Angad Bedi: ‘The mandatory midnight wish’


Bollywood’s beloved couple, Neha Dhupia and Angad Bedi, always find ways to charm their fans with adorable moments capturing their family life. Just as the clock struck midnight, signaling the start of Angad Bedi’s birthday, his wife, Neha, seized the opportunity to offer her heartfelt wishes in a most tender yet quirky manner. Choosing not to disturb his slumber, she serenaded a sleeping Angad, with the familiar tune of ‘Happy Birthday’ softly echoing in their cozy, dim-lit room while their daughter Mehr peacefully slept by his side.

Neha Dhupia’s Instagram was abuzz as she shared this endearing video with her followers. Her whispering voice filled the space as she approached Angad, who lay unaware, cradling sweet dreams. In the glow of her cellphone light, a Happy Birthday sign made a subtle appearance, complementing the melodic surprise. Despite her singing, Angad Bedi remained nestled in his dreams, unshaken by the gentle melody. Accompanying the posted video, Dhupia penned, “The mandatory midnight wish … I love you soooo much that I did not wake up !!!! Happy birthday my love, my life, my world @angadbedi. Also, our mehrunissa is @mehrdhupiabedi.”

The heartwarming gesture exemplifies the intimacy and fun spirit that thrives in their relationship. Engaged in the continuous celebration of love, Neha and Angad have built a delightful family and home since their nuptials in 2018. Their daughter Mehr, who was introduced to the world a few months after the wedding, has been joined by the newest member, baby boy Guriq Singh Dhupia Bedi, solidifying the Bedi household with abundant joy.

Neha, a proponent of sustainable and meaningful parenting, initiated a conversation on the values of hand-me-downs through a recent social media post featuring Guriq. In the photographs, the little one wore a vintage sweater, once belonging to Angad as a toddler. Neha celebrated the heritage and history of the garment as she wrote, “Our baby boy in his daddy’s sweater when his daddy @angadbedi was 2-3 years old!!! Yes now do the math … (also, I marvel my mom-in-law to hold on to these) Don’t think I have shared this before but my love for #handmedowns is real … each one comes with a story of its own and always more precious than anything you can ever buy off a counter.”

She continued to express how today’s mothers, including herself, have embraced the tradition of passing along books, toys, and clothes. It’s a habit that emphasizes practicality, generational bonding, and communal sharing. Moreover, it crosses the boundaries of personal use, extending to those in need, as Neha refers to a “large part of it” being given to children and moms who could use some extra support.

In the age of rampant consumerism and environmental concerns, such practices set by public figures like Neha could lead to positive societal changes towards sustainability in parenting. It creates a ripple effect from one household to another, from one generation to the next, where values of thriftiness, gratitude, and charity are celebrated and upheld.

As dawn breaks on Angad’s birthday, and as he eventually awakens to the world of well-wishers, he will be privy to the lovely silhouettes of love painted by Neha’s quietly sung wishes and the subtle joy of family life expressed in their everyday interactions. As they glide across the landscape of their life together, it’s these simple, unadorned moments cachéd in their family album that fans and followers have come to cherish deeply.

Here’s to the Bedi family, as Neha and Angad continue to create these tender vignettes and share their universe of warmth and affection with the world. It serves as a reminder that in the end, the most precious memories are those imprinted on the heart, not always those celebrated with clanging cymbals or the glare of the spotlight. Happy birthday, Angad Bedi — may you continue to sleep soundly in the cocoon of your family’s love.
