Imran Khan with family

Bollywood actor Imran Khan and his wife Avantika Malik recently became proud parents of a baby girl. They have named their daughter ‘Imara Malik Khan’. “It’s a Swahili name, which means ‘strong and resolute’,” says Imran Khan. He reveals that it was his wife who found the name. ‘Imara Malik Khan’ was born on June 9 at a boutique suburban hospital in Mumbai. The delivery took place through a cesarean section.

As per sources, Imran Khan said, “She was doing all the work. Initially, I was quite hesitant because I felt it sounded like Imran, and it seemed egocentric. But then it came to a point where I didn’t like any other name.”

Imran Khan further added, “It feels different the second you see the baby. I just looked at ‘Imara Malik Khan’ and I crumbled and fell. Had it been a boy, somewhere, I think I would’ve been okay. This father-daughter thing… I looked at her and I thought, ‘My life is over now. All my life, I will be on my knees and running after her.”

We wish the couple Happy Parenting.
