Veteran actor Jeetendra is on cloud nine. Well, he has every reason to be. The family is complete now as his darling daughter Ekta Kapoor welcomed a baby boy on January 27 via surrogacy. She took to her social media page to announce her happiness and revealed the name of her son. She wrote, "By God’s grace, I have seen many successes in my life, but nothing beats the feeling of this beautiful soul being added in my world. I cannot even begin to express how happy my baby’s birth has made me. Everything in life doesn’t go the way you want it to but there are always solutions to those hiccups. I found mine and today I feel immensely blessed to become a parent. It is an emotional moment for me and my family and I can’t wait to begin this new journey of being a mother to my little bundle of joy, Ravie Kapoor. – Ekta Kapoor”.
Now, speaking to Mid-day, her father Jeetendra aka Ravi Kapoor disclosed a lot about the new member's arrival in the family. Sharing his excitement, he said, "I was a dada earlier. Now, I have become a nana. My life is complete!"
We exclusively told you Ekta Kapoor knocked the door of Astrologer Sanjay B Jumaani before finalising the name. Talking about which Jeetendra said,"The letter 'E' was added on the recommendation of their astrologer. We wanted an astrologically name starting with R, and then Ekta thought why not name him after baba?"
He also mentioned, "Shobha and I were over the moon when we heard it first. We are looking forward to him coming home. Our family makes daily rounds of the suburban hospital where the baby is currently under supervision. My family says he (Ravie) looks just like me, but then, a child's looks keep changing every day. It's tough to say who he will resemble in the future. Now, I have Laksshya and Ravie — they are the apple of my eye. I can die peacefully now as both my babies have their own babies."

When asked if he wants his children to get married as Ekta and Tusshar both have chosen to be single parents to their kids. He replied, "I believe one must be happy in life. Whether you are married or single, for me, the idea was that Tusshar and Ekta should have someone to come back home to. A baby is the biggest blessing and responsibility to have. With responsibility comes to passion, love, happiness and a purpose in life. There cannot be a bigger responsibility than taking care of a baby."
