Celebrations are in order for Bengali film director Raja Chanda and actress Paean Sarkar, as the couple has welcomed their first child, a baby girl. The couple shared the happy news with their fans and followers on social media on September 23, announcing the arrival of their little one with a heartwarming post.
Raja Chanda and Paean Sarkar shared a joint social media announcement that featured the words, “Our little blessing”, followed by “BABY GIRL has arrived” and the date “23.09.2026”. The post was signed off as “PAEAN n RAJA”, marking the beginning of a new chapter in their lives.
The couple had been eagerly awaiting the arrival of their first child. Paean had earlier revealed that she was expecting in July, while Raja Chanda also confirmed the news. Reports noted that the actress was six months pregnant at the time and had been following a disciplined routine focused on rest, exercise and a healthy diet.
According to a report by Anandabazar, Paean Sarkar gave birth to a baby girl at a private hospital on September 23. The actress reportedly shared that she and Raja became emotional when they held their daughter for the first time. Raja Chanda was also present with Paean during the delivery and described seeing his daughter for the first time as a magical experience.
Raja Chanda is a prominent Bengali film director who began his filmmaking journey with Target in 2010. Over the years, he has directed several commercial Bengali films, including Challenge 2, Rangbaaz, Le Halua Le, Besh Korechi Prem Korechi, Sultan: The Saviour, Magic and Kidnap. He also has an extensive background in advertising and has directed hundreds of ad films.
Paean Sarkar is an actress and model who has worked in Bengali films, web series and advertising. She has appeared in projects including Magic, Savings Account, Katakuti and Police. She has also been associated with modelling and fashion shoots.
Raja Chanda and Paean Sarkar tied the knot in November 2018 after meeting through a glam hunt competition, where Raja was one of the judges and Paean was a participant. Their relationship eventually blossomed into marriage, and nearly eight years later, the couple has welcomed their first child.
With their baby girl now in their arms, Raja and Paean have stepped into a beautiful new phase of parenthood. Their simple yet emotional announcement has already made the occasion even more special for their fans and well-wishers.
