Indian singer Jubin Nautiyal has embraced a new chapter in his personal life after becoming a father for the first time. The singer and his family welcomed a baby boy on 14 September, coinciding with the Hindu festival of Ganesh Chaturthi, making the occasion particularly meaningful for the family.
Jubin confirmed the birth during an exclusive conversation with Bombay Times. He revealed that both the mother and the newborn are healthy and have returned home. Sharing his excitement, the singer said, “Yes, I am a father now!” The arrival of his first child marks a major personal milestone for the singer, whose career has been closely followed by audiences across India.
The timing of the birth added another layer of significance for the family. Ganesh Chaturthi is widely celebrated across India as a festival associated with Lord Ganesha and is marked by religious ceremonies, family gatherings and community celebrations. For Jubin and his loved ones, the festival will now also be remembered as the day their son entered the world.
The singer said the family has yet to finalise a name for the baby. For now, he and his family are concentrating on spending time with the newborn and settling into the early days of parenthood. Rather than making an immediate decision, they are taking time to enjoy the experience and adjust to their new responsibilities.
Jubin has established himself as one of the prominent voices in contemporary Hindi film music, with a career that has included playback singing across a number of commercially successful films. His songs have reached a wide audience, with notable tracks including ‘Raataan Lambiyan’ from Shershaah, ‘Tujhe Kitna Chahein Aur’ from Kabir Singh, ‘Kaabil Hoon’ from Kaabil, ‘Lo Safar’ from Baaghi 2 and ‘Zindagi Kuch Toh Bata’ from Bajrangi Bhaijaan.
His music career has also involved live performances and international engagements, meaning that fatherhood will come alongside continuing professional commitments. The singer has a UK tour scheduled for December, a period that will require him to spend some time away from his newborn son.
Jubin acknowledged that being away from his baby will not be easy. The singer is currently enjoying the early moments of fatherhood, and the prospect of travelling while his son is still very young presents an emotional challenge. At the same time, his professional commitments remain part of his career, requiring him to balance life on the road with his responsibilities at home.
The birth has also prompted congratulations from people within the music and entertainment industry, along with fans who have followed Jubin’s work over the years. While public interest is likely to continue around the identity and name of the newborn, the singer has so far kept the focus on the family’s private celebration.
For Jubin, the arrival of his son represents a significant change beyond his work in recording studios and on concert stages. As he begins balancing his musical career with the responsibilities of parenthood, the singer and his family are celebrating the arrival of a new member at a particularly memorable moment.
