New Delhi: Television couple Mohit and Addite Malik welcomed their first child, a baby boy, earlier this year. They named their son Ekbir Malik which means ‘brave one’. Addite also shared her experience of giving birth and revealed that her son Ekbir had a cord around his neck.


Mohit and Addite, who did not reveal their son’s face to their fans, shared an adorable picture of Ekbir Malik on the occasion of Krishna Janmashtami. Addite wrote while sharing the picture, “aathi Ghodha Palki, Jai Kanhaiya Lal Ki! Our Kanha @ekbirmalik bringing so much of laughter, giggles, smiles, happiness, naughtiness and innocence into our lives All of you wanted to see Ekbir and we decided why not, it’s only positivity that comes from you all for him!!!”




Mohit also shared the adorable picture of his wife Addite and son Ekbir on his Instagram.


Earlier this year, taking to her social media, Addite penned down her experience of embracing motherhood for the first time. She also revealed why she opted for a C-section delivery. Her note read, “Two days before I gave birth to @ekbirmalik , I couldn’t feel his movements and I had really been feeling uneasy.”


She continued, “I had wanted a normal delivery, its what I had envisioned for myself. But nothing mattered more than my child and my instinct told me that my child needed to be out. Ekbir had a cord around his neck which later explained the uneasiness I had. He would have still been fine but I know my heart said that for the safety of my child, he needed to come into this world.”



Addite Malik also lost her father earlier this month.


Meanwhile, Mohit and Addite got married on December 1, 2010. The couple first met on the sets of the popular show ‘Banoo Main Teri Dulhann’. They welcomed their first child 10 years after their marriage.
