Time was when paparazzi trailed star parents to catch a glimpse of their babies. No more, stars will willingly put them up on social media and fans go into a tizzy:
Indian captain M.S Dhoni, currently on the IPL circuit, changed his FB DP to a photo with daughter Ziva and fans went into overdrive sharing it on Twitter, while media played it up, too. So, little Ziva Singh Dhoni is now the focus of celeb-watchers.
Shah Rukh Khan has had no hang-ups about introducing his son Abram to the world via social media. In fact, fans and followers get regular updates about the little fella’s activities. Last heard, he has added new words to his vocab, one of them being ‘KKR’.

While the Bachchans did everything in their power to keep little Aaradhya out of the range of photographers, grandpa Amitabh Bachan is happy now to talk about her tiny adventures. He wrote on his blog srbachchan.tumbler.com ‘The little one gets precocious by the hour… and talks non stop .. with as many questions as one could possibly imagine .. it’s the best time to be with her .. her homemade stories, her banter of what she feels about situations, her friends, her family, her toys and her home … !! These are indeed the happiest days of their lives … before they get exposed to this big bad world !!
Down South, the news-making baby of recent times has been Ajith and Shalini’s son. Thala guards his privacy fiercely, but the birth of his second child was an event his fans got a glimpse of. Ajith himself was in the delivery room and later posed for photos with the medical team. Those and the first look of the baby boy – quickly christened Kutty Thala – made it to a youtube video and also trended on Twitter.
