It’s been a month since Charu Asopa Sen and her husband Rajeev Sen had their first child, a baby girl. Finally revealing her feelings about bringing her premature kid home, Asopa says,“I had to get a C-section in the 37th week. The first time the doctor took me to see her, she was in the OT. I started crying like a baby because she was so small.”
They’ve given her the name Ziana, and there’s a backstory to it. To begin, she confesses that bringing her kid home was a tumultuous experience. “I had told the doctors that I wanted to take Ziana home on Diwali, which was on November 4, and she was born on the 1st. We requested them, and they agreed, as we wanted to bring our Laxmi home on such an auspicious occasion. I was perfectly fine the day before, but on the 4th, since they had given me spinal anesthesia, I had a massive headache and started puking. But since I had made up my mind, I took her home anyway,” she says.
Everyone in her family, notably her sister-in-law Sushmita Sen, was overjoyed with the arrival of the baby, Asopa adds, “Didi was so happy. When my operation happened at the time of delivery, Rajeev and didi both were there. The moment I came out of the OT, Ziana was in Didi’s hands, I was happy.”
Finally, when asked how they came up with the name, they revealed that it was Sushmita’s younger daughter Alisah who proposed it. According to the actor, “Bhua decided the name, so didi had kept some boy and girl names ready, and one of them was Zian if it was a boy. When she was born, Alisah suggested Ziaan ka Ziana kar dete hain. Then didi searched if there is actually such a name in Hindu sanskriti. Everything was perfect.”
