In Pic: Viineet Kumar with his wife
2025 is actor Viineet Kumar Singh's year. After receiving widespread acclaim for his recently released films Chhaava, Superboys of Malegaon, and Jaat, the actor is all set to enter a new phase of his life on the personal front. He has shared that he and his wife, actor Ruchiraa Ghormare, are expecting their first child together.
In a chat with Hindustan Times, the actor announced the happy news of his wife's pregnancy and shared his excitement, saying, "We are super delighted and can't wait for our baby to be with us. This is new for us, and I want to be there for every moment." "I am so happy. There's too much happening, and my emotions are all over!" Ruchiraa added.
While Viineet is super pumped to be a father, the mom-to-be shared, "The pregnancy has been and is a busy one for Viineet and me. I am a workaholic, so I am glad to be working in this phase of my life."

"Main Ruchiraa ka khayal rakhne ki koshish karta hoon. Jaldi se jaldi kaam khatam karke ghar jaata hoon. I have figured out my time to accompany her and have been with her for visits to the doctor. I plan to be on paternity leave post-delivery in July," Viineet continued.
For Viineet, this has been nothing short of magical. Crediting his success as 'baby luck', he asserted, "I used to hear about such things, and now I have seen it happen. Within four months, four movies featuring me have released - that too theatrically - Match Fixing, Chhaava, Superboys of Malegaon, and Jaat! I don't have a say on when a film releases, and to have back-to-back releases is amazing. 2025 has been a blockbuster year for me! Bahut khoobsurat hai."
While talking about the kind of parent he wants to be, Viineet was quick to share, "Parent sirf yeh nahi hota ke aap ek bachche ke pita ho. Yeh bhi dhyaan rakhna hai ke aapki life partner, aapki wife ki life mein bahut kuch change hoga. Main sirf ek dimension se nahi dekhta hoon. Main zimmedaar hoon. You have to see and know that a mother goes through a lot, and bahut badlav honge. Being a father isn't about responsibility towards your baby but also responsibility towards the mother. I am going to figure out and work on being there for both of them."
