Witnessing the beautiful Tulu rituals, sacred traditions, mantras, flowers, sarees, and every little custom so closely felt truly magical... almost like living a dream we had only imagined. From the poojas and family blessings to the warmth and love in every ritual, the entire day felt so pure, emotional, and deeply special for both of us and our little baby. A dream come true in the most beautiful, traditional way," the actor wrote.
Karishma also expressed immense gratitude as she added, "Our hearts are full.Feeling deeply grateful, protected, pampered, and surrounded by love as we step into this beautiful new chapter together."

As a fan from the US, I really appreciate how Karishma is keeping our Indian traditions alive even while being a public figure. The captions are so heartfelt—it's clear this is a deeply spiritual moment for her. Her happiness is contagious! 💖
Honestly, these celebrity pregnancy announcements are getting too commercial. But Karishma's post feels genuine—no over-the-top production, just pure family love. The Tulu rituals are rarely seen in media, so it's refreshing. Hope she stays humble through motherhood!
Living a dream indeed! 🥰 The combination of tradition and modernity is so inspiring. Seeing a South Indian ceremony like this on such a big platform makes me proud of our rich culture. Karishma and Varun make a stunning couple—may their family be blessed! 🇮🇳✨
As someone from Karnataka, seeing a Tulu-style Godh Bharai is heartwarming. Karishma's saree and jewelry are traditional perfection—no Bollywood glitz, just authentic customs. Her caption about mantras and flowers is exactly how our ceremonies feel. Wishing her a safe delivery! 🙏
Lovely to see celebrities sharing such intimate family moments. The simplicity of Varun's white kurta and Karishma's heavy jewelry creates a perfect contrast. I just hope the media gives them privacy during this time—celebrity babies should be celebrated, not exploited.
