Bollywood power couple Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh have taken a bold step in naming their daughter ‘Dua Padukone Singh’, placing the mother’s surname before the father’s. This decision challenges traditional patriarchal norms in Indian society, where the wife typically adopts the husband’s surname. The name, which means ‘prayer’ in Arabic, has sparked conversation online, with some users drawing parallels to pop star Dua Lipa. However, the couple’s caption, emphasizing the newborn as ‘the answer to our prayers’, clarifies the true meaning behind the name.
