Actor-politician Nusrat Jahan, who welcomed a baby boy last month, made her first public appearance on Wednesday after embracing motherhood. She attended the opening of a salon in Kolkata. At the event, she was asked a question about her ‘better half’ and she chose not to take any names.
When a reporter asked Nusrat about her ‘better half’, she replied, “I think that’s a vague question to ask and puts a black spot on somebody’s character as a woman, who the father is. The father knows who the father is and we are having a great parenthood together at the moment. Myself and Yash, we are having a good time.”
Nusrat also said that motherhood ‘feels great’. “It’s a new life, it feels like a new beginning,” she said. She also revealed that her son was named Yishaan.
She resumed work less than a month after delivering her child and when asked by mediapersons on when can one get the first glimpse of her son, Nusrat said, “You should ask his father that. He is not letting anyone see him at the moment.”
Jahan was admitted to a hospital in Park Street on August 25, and gave birth to the child around 12.20 pm the next day.
Bengali actor Yash Dasgupta was present at the hospital.
Meanwhile, Nusrat was previously married to Kolkata-based businessman Nikhil Jain. She was embroiled in a controversy regarding the validity of the wedding. They exchanged wedding vows in Turkey in 2019. However, Nusrat denied the standing of the marriage in India. She claimed that the marriage was invalid under Indian laws and that Nikhil was her live-in-partner.
After this, speculations started doing the round regarding Nusrat dating politician Yash Dasgupta who was also by her side during the birth of her son.
Yash was seen carrying Yishaan to the car from the Bhagirathi Neotia Hospital when the baby was born. He was also the one sharing Nusrat’s health update with the media. He said, “For those who have been enquiring about Nusrat’s health, the mother and child are healthy and doing well.” Later, Nikhil also talked about the baby and wished him well. He was quoted by news agency PTI as saying, “I wish the baby boy has a bright future.”
