The news surprised fans because the couple had not announced the pregnancy in public. Chinmayi later shared a note on Instagram in which she stated that she was protecting her privacy and only her innermost circles knew.

“I’m absolutely loving these people who are DM-ing me asking if I had twins through a surrogate just because I didn’t post pictures of me being pregnant…And if you need to know I actually *sang* a bhajan during the caesarean as our twins entered the world…,” she said, adding that the couple will not be posting pictures of the twins for a long time.

“Watching my wife handle the last 10 months of pregnancy like a rockstar and watching our babies being delivered has been the most incredibly powerful and profound experience of my life. Something changed within. I hope it makes me kinder and better. The strength women have,” Rahul wrote on twitter.
