Puja Banerjee continued, 'Then our wait started day 1, day 2 day 3 we both were running out of patience as we both didn't even know how he looks because we hardly saw him for a few seconds. Finally, after a lot of prayers on day 4th, he recovered and was given to us and we met him for the 1st time. Out heart and life is filled with joy and we both love him to our life but somehow I will never be able to forget those 3 nights without him.'

Puja Banerjee prayed that 'each and every child born should be safe and sound' and wished that 'they never have to be away from their mothers.' It all happened on October 9, 2020, when Puja reached the hospital after 'a sleepless night full of excitement, anxiety, happiness and all mixed emotions' as she and her husband were about to see their baby for the 1st time. The actor mentioned that she was supposed to be inside the OT with her husband; however, due to the pandemic, she was allowed to go for it alone.
