Mahesh Bhupathi and Lara Dutta became the proud parents of a healthy baby girl on January 20. The couple tied the knot on Feb 19 in Goa last year. We take a look at their love story.
Mahesh Bhupathi is an ace tennis player who has had famous partnerships with Leander Paes, Rohan Bopanna and Sania Mirza.
Lara Dutta is one of Bollywood's leading ladies whose last release was 'Don 2' alongside Shah Rukh Khan and Priyanka Chopra.
Mahesh is active off the court too with his sports management company, Globosport, that manages the career of Sania Mirza, among other athletes.
He was married to model Shvetha Jaishankar for nearly seven years but the relationship soured and the couple filed for divorce in 2010.
Shvetha blamed Lara for the split between her and Mahesh but Lara flatly denied these allegations.
Lara shot to limelight when she bagged the Miss India title in 2000. Here she's seen with runner-ups, Priyanka Chopra and Dia Mirza, who today are her contemporaries in Bollywood.
However Lara really made the world sit up and take notice of her when she won the prestigious Miss Universe title at the 2000 event that was held in Cyprus.
Lara Dutta also was often in the news for her relationships, the longest being that with fellow model Kelly Dorjee who she dated for eight years.
After she split with Dorjee she also dated actor Dino Morea briefly who she knew from her modelling days for Gladrags magazine
However it was her relationship with Mahesh that she decided was worth going the extra mile for. One of the couple's early public sightings was at the Filmfare Awards in 2010.
Lara celebrated her bachelorette party in Dubai. She tweeted, '15 women..4 days..1 mission..PAAARRRTTY!! Here's hoping I survive my bachelorette!!'
Meanwhile Mahesh made his own new year resolutions on Twitter. He tweeted, 'My New year resolution for this decade is... Get married and stay married...'
The couple welcomed a baby girl on January 20. Bhupathi tweeted, 'ITS A GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! @DuttaLara. I Love u....'. We wish them all the very best as they bring home their princess!
