The 39-year-old actor took to Instagram and posted a picture with her baby bump. 

"Blessed to be. One with Mother Earth. One with the life force that is the beginning of everything. Of all stories. Lullabies. Songs. Of new saplings. And the blossoming of hope. Blessed to cradle this purest of all dreams in my womb," the actor wrote. 

Mirza recently returned from Maldives, where she was holidaying with Rekhi and Samaira, his daughter from first wife.
