The actress shared a series of personal photos that encapsulated key moments in their relationship, ranging from their wedding to their journey into parenthood. In her caption, she expressed her affection, writing, “Happy birthday my person, love you so much.” This heartfelt message accompanied a carousel of images that highlight significant memories they have created together.
One standout image from the post beautifully captures a tender moment from their wedding, where Athiya can be seen embracing Rahul. Another notable photo, presented in black-and-white, takes viewers back to a serene vacation snapshot that reflects their quieter times as a couple.
Among the cherished slides, a particularly heartwarming picture features Rahul’s hand beside their daughter’s tiny feet, emphasizing their new life as parents.

The post garnered warm responses from industry friends, including celebrities like Karan Johar, Sagarika Ghatge, and Natasa Stankovic, who expressed their admiration with heart emojis.
Athiya and Rahul’s journey began in January 2019, when they met through a mutual friend. After a few years of dating, they exchanged vows in 2023 at a family farmhouse owned by Athiya’s father, Suniel Shetty.
The couple welcomed their daughter last year and revealed her name, Evaarah, on Rahul’s 33rd birthday. In a touching post, they shared an image of Rahul holding the baby with Athiya by his side, describing their daughter as “our everything.” They further explained that her complete name is Evaarah Vipula Rahul, with “Vipula” chosen to honor her great-grandmother.
On the professional front, Athiya Shetty made her acting debut in 2015 with the film Hero, where she starred alongside Sooraj Pancholi. She subsequently acted in Mubarakan with Arjun Kapoor. Her most recent appearance was in Motichoor Chaknachoor, directed by Debamitra Biswal. This film featured Nawazuddin Siddiqui and focused on a 36-year-old man working in Dubai searching for a bride, leading to a romantic encounter with his younger neighbor who aspires to marry someone abroad.
