Deepika Padukone's 'Love Language' is baking: Dua's first birthday

New Delhi, Sep 10 (UNI) Actress Deepika Padukone celebrated a heartfelt milestone this week as her daughter Dua turned one year old. Marking the special occasion, sharing a sweet glimpse of her homemade birthday cake, lovingly baked for her little one.
The actress, who welcomed Dua Padukone Singh with husband Ranveer Singh on September 8, 2024, took to Instagram to share a simple yet heartwarming photo of a chocolate cake she had baked herself. Alongside the image, she added a sweet caption that read, "My love language? Baking a cake for my daughter's 1st birthday!"
Fans were quick to flood the comment section with love and warm wishes. One user wrote, "Lots of love to my lil' Dua," while another commented, "A year already?" accompanied by a baby emoji. Many others sent heartfelt blessings for the little one.
Deepika and Ranveer, who tied the knot in 2018, revealed their daughter's name during Diwali last year, sharing a touching note. They wrote, "Dua: meaning a prayer. Because she is the answer to our prayers."
Though the couple once invited the paparazzi to meet their daughter, they have held back from releasing her pictures, choosing instead to share them on their own terms.
As one of the most celebrated actors in the country, Deepika continues to balance her high-profile career with her new role as a mother and, it seems, an enthusiastic home baker.
