Suniel Shetty praises son-in-law KL Rahul's ODI century & composure. Details on Rahul & Athiya Shetty's baby girl Evaarah and New Year glimpses.

"The scoreboard will remember the hundred. I will remember the composure behind it...always. - Suniel Shetty"

Mumbai Ja, n 14

Bollywood star Suniel Shetty has lauded his son-in-law and cricketer KL Rahul for scoring a century in the India Vs New Zealand ODI series, on January 14.

The 'proud' father-in-law also mentioned that while everybody will remember his 100, but he will always remember the composure behind his achievement.

Sharing the video clip of KL Rahul scoring his 100, Suniel wrote, "Different Position Same Calm Same Character. The scoreboard will remember the hundred. I will remember the composure behind it...always. Proud of you Sun @klrahul."

For the uninitiated, Athiya and Rahul, who dated for a few years before making their relationship public in 2019, got married on January 23, 2023, at Suniel Shetty's farmhouse in Khandala.

Rahul and Athiya welcomed their first bundle of joy, a baby girl, on March 24, 2025, two years after their marriage. A few weeks after their baby's birth, the couple announced the name of their girl and also shared her first glimpse.

Athiya and Rahul took to their social media handles in a joint post, to share a picture of the latter cradling his baby in Rahul's arms, while the actress doted on them.

They captioned the post as, "Our baby girl, our everything. Evaarah/इवारा ~ Gift of God (sic)."

On account of New Year, the couple had treated their fans with a rare glimpse of their baby girl, as they captured a calm and beautiful moment at the beach.

The couple posted a sweet picture from the shoreline, where Rahul and Athiya could be seen holding their daughter closely.

In another video shared by Athiya, the new parents were seen strolling down the beach, hand in hand.

The clip also showed the couple completely engrossed in love and also enjoying a peaceful walk by the sea. For the background score, Athiya used Dean Lewis' instrumental track 'Iris' to add a gentle emotional touch to their post.

As a cricket fan, I agree with Suniel sir. That century was crucial for the series, but Rahul's calm under pressure is what makes him a class player. Hope he carries this form into the next matches!

Beautiful to see a Bollywood and cricket union thriving. They seem very grounded. The baby's name, Evaarah, is so unique and meaningful. God's gift indeed!

Respectfully, while the family news is sweet, I wish sports journalism would focus a bit more on the match analysis and a bit less on the celebrity personal lives. The century itself deserves the main spotlight.

Suniel Shetty is absolutely right. In cricket, temperament is everything. Rahul showed great character. Also, the beach pictures with the baby were too cute! 🏏👶

It's heartwarming to see such support from the family. In our culture, a father-in-law's blessing means a lot. KL Rahul is having a great phase both on and off the field. More power to him!
