Sonam Kapoor Ahuja reveals the meaning behind the artwork used to announce the arrival of baby boy in this Instagram post
Sonam Kapoor Ahuja and Anand Ahuja welcomed their first child on August 20 and several celebrities took to social media to congratulate the couple on this news. Along with an emotional note about welcoming their baby, the couple also shared a unique piece of artwork. Now, explaining the reason behind the same, Sonam revealed on social media that it is created by the famous Rithika Merchant and explained that the reason behind sketching an eagle and deer represents the universal concept of a union between the Sky Father and the Earth Mother.
Sonam Kapoor Ahuja took to Instagram to share another picture from the creation of the artwork along with a long note that described the painting and its meaning. Expressing her gratitude towards artist Rithika Merchant, Sonam wrote, “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.”
She went on to further add, “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,” she concluded.
The photos were originally shared by Rithika Merchant on her Instagram page where she had captioned it saying, “Specially commissioned for Sonam and Anand on this special occasion, Rithika Merchant refers to the universal concepts of a union between the Sky Father and gentle, attentive and watchful Earth Mother, represented in this work tiltled “Nova” by the Eagle and the Deer respectively. Congratulations to @sonamkapoor and @anandahuja on their new arrival!” Sonam too responded to it by expressing how much she loved the art work. She commented, “I love this so much I can’t tell you. It represents all my emotions.”
Expressing their happiness over the news, the Kapoor family has been celebrating the arrival of Sonam Kapoor Ahuja and Anand Ahuja’s baby throughout the week. Anand and grandfather Anil Kapoor distributed sweets to the media whereas Rhea Kapoor planned a grand welcome for Sonam and the newborn Baby Kapoor-Ahuja when the actress returned home from the hospital.
