Diwaker is daddy cool!

After Ronit Bose Roy, now it's the turn of Diwaker Pundhir to become daddy to a little girl! Diwaker's baby was born on 14 July and the new dad seems very excited about his new found status. "Well, I am very happy! We haven't been able to name her yet and I guess the process is going to take at least a month, since we have so many suggestions coming in," grins Diwaker. The actor, currently seen in Reth, had decided that if the baby would be a boy, he would name him Kshom, after the character he plays in the show. "Ya, I had decided this, but now I have to start from scratch," says the proud papa, who took a break for 10 days to be with his newborn. Diwaker, who is busy shooting for Reth and dubbing for his two films, restarts shooting from 23 July and seems a bit melancholy at the prospect of leaving his baby for going to work. "Unfortunately, shooting will never happen at my convenience, so its back to work from tomorrow," sighs Diwaker. So has he mastered the art of changing nappies? "Well, I have done it once or twice and it's nice….but now I will have no time and my wife has to do it!" laughs Diwaker. A few weeks ago however, a popular television programme had labeled this handsome hunk "the most eligible bachelor" in the industry and this seemed to have made life difficult for the actor when he was shooting for Reth. Recalling the day, Diwaker says, "I was in the middle of an important scene when all these phone calls started coming, and it was such an sensitive issue, especially now that my wife is pregnant, that I could not even switch off my mobile and concentrated on the shooting." It was an hour of harrowing time and finally after he has spoken to his wife and his in laws that he could switch off his mobile and got back to shooting. With the coming of his baby girl, this will seem like a distant nightmare for Diwaker today!
