Deepika Ranveer Baby Name: This Diwali, Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh gifted fans not just with festive cheer, but with a precious announcement, the name of their firstborn. Sharing an adorable first glimpse of their daughter, the Bollywood power couple revealed her name as “Dua Padukone Singh,” complete with a protective evil-eye emoji. According to their heartfelt post, “Dua,” which means “prayer,” was chosen as she is quite literally the answer to theirs. And while hearts melted and “aww”s echoed across social media, not everyone was there to simply share the joy. Enter the keyboard warriors.
Deepika Ranveer Baby Name – Why ‘Dua’ and not ‘Prarthana’ ?
In typical social media fashion, a few commentators quickly launched into a reactionary uproar. Their main gripe? The name “Dua” was simply too Muslim for their tastes. One particularly indignant user fumed that they’d eagerly awaited the big name reveal only to be so “mood off” that even Diwali sweets couldn’t mend their spirits. The suggestion, perhaps, was that “Dua” should’ve been replaced by something more traditionally “acceptable.” And one suggestion was for “Dakshika“—a name which, as another user helpfully informed the internet, means “Daughter of Brahma.” Because, you know, unless your baby name references the creator of the universe, are you even naming a child right?
Meanwhile, some outraged users scratched their heads over linguistic choices, wondering why Deepika and Ranveer had veered into Urdu territory instead of staying closer to home with, say, “Prarthana.” For these language nationalists, it seemed a baby’s name should represent only one culture and avoid any universal sentiments like—dare we say it—“a prayer.” Of course, by this logic, calling a baby “Dua” might as well come with a religious conversion card.
As the comment section circus played out, Ranveer and Deepika were probably far too busy doting over baby Dua to bother with the noise. Somewhere, Dua Lipa was probably wondering why her stream count in India suddenly spiked. Meanwhile, the rest of us were left to witness another chapter in the ongoing saga of unsolicited social media feedback.
In the end, the name “Dua” represents something universal and pure – a prayer. And in a world as divided as ours, maybe we could all use a little more dua, prarthana, or whatever word you choose to describe heartfelt hopes for a better tomorrow.
