Dream girl Hema Malini's elder daughter, Esha Deol became a proud mother on October 20, 2017, as she gave birth to a baby girl. On October 23, Both, Esha and her husband, Bharat Takhtani christened the girl child with the name ‘Radhya' and made it official to the world through social media. Nearly almost two-and-half-months, the actress has shared the first photo of the little munchkin. She took to her Instagram account and wrote, "A glimpse of Radhya !!!?? (sic)"

Well, here's a twist, there's a catch in the picture. The photo is not of Radhya's but Esha Deol herself. Through this photo, Esha gave her fans and the viewers a hint that Radhya is her doppelganger. Exactly the way Esha is her mother Hema Malini's spitting image. The little baby's name, Radhya is derived from Radha, read a statement issued on behalf of the family. "We are very happy to announce that our daughter will be named as Radhya Takhtani. The name has been jointly decided by Esha and me," said Bharat Takhtani, whom Esha married in 2012.

Hema Malini, who was on the seventh heaven, was beaming with joy upon Radhya's arrival. She tweeted, "Friday October 20 was a special and wonderful day! Esha was blessed wth a beautiful baby girl and my cup of happiness is full. Ab ghar par Lakshmiji aa gayi (Lakshmi has arrived at home)."
