Sonam Kapoor Ahuja Releases A Special Art Piece For Her Newborn
The Bollywood actress took to Instagram this weekend to explain the meaning behind the beautiful piece
Bollywood actress and new mum Sonam Kapoor Ahuja recently announced the birth of her newborn boy with a heartfelt Instagram post that practically broke the internet. Since then, several paparazzi images of the new parents and their families have been circulating online, making all fans (including us) eager to see the new Kapoor Ahuja member.
This weekend, the thirty-seven-year-old star and husband Anand Ahuja shared a sweet Instagram post showcasing a new special art piece dedicated to their first child.
Made by Artist Rithika Merchant, the stunning creation includes a bright visual of nature, and Earth mother. The couple explained the meaning behind the masterpiece in the caption of the post that says,”For this momentous occasion in our life @anandahuja and I wanted @rithikamerchant to create a special art piece to announce the birth of our baby boy. And we couldn’t be more ecstatic with it.”
“In this Art piece Rithika refers to the universal concepts of a union between the Sky Father and the gentle, attentive and watchful Earth Mother, represented here by the Eagle and the Deer respectively. Eagles or hawks are associated with fatherhood and otherworldly creation (the overarching concept of the Dyeus Pita/Sky Father). Deer are associated with motherhood.They are gentle, attentive and watchful creatures. They are always on guard and can move, adapt, and survive even in the most challenging conditions.”
“Ever since the early Neolithic, when the earth was much colder and reindeer more widespread, the female reindeer was venerated by northern people. She was the “life-giving mother”, the leader of the herds upon which they depended for survival, and they followed the reindeer migrations for milk, food, clothing and shelter. She was a revered spiritual figure associated with fertility, motherhood, regeneration and the rebirth of the sun.”
