Divyanka Tripathi and Vivek Dahiya have opened up about how becoming parents has transformed their priorities, with the television couple saying their twin sons now occupy their thoughts throughout the day.
In an exclusive conversation with IANS, Divyanka and Vivek described parenthood as the biggest change in their lives so far. From the moment they wake up until they go to sleep, the couple said their attention is now centred on their babies.
They also revealed that becoming parents has changed how they view their careers. According to the couple, professional decisions are no longer only about what they want to achieve; they also think about whether their work will be good for their children.
Divyanka and Vivek Say Their Babies Come First
Reflecting on the biggest change since becoming parents, Divyanka Tripathi and Vivek Dahiya said their focus has shifted away from themselves and toward their sons.
“The biggest change is that we used to think about ourselves and each other. Now our priority and focus is our babies,” the couple told IANS.
Their comments highlight how dramatically their daily routine has changed since welcoming their twin boys earlier this year.
Rather than beginning the day by thinking about work, personal plans or each other, the couple said they first think about whether their children are awake, comfortable and doing well.
Their First Thought in the Morning Is About the Babies
Divyanka and Vivek explained that parenthood has made checking on their children an immediate part of their morning routine.
“When we wake up in the morning, our first thought is that are the babies crying? Are the babies okay? Should we go and check on them?” they said.
Once they know their sons are fine, the couple said they often simply want to spend time playing with them.
Their description of the routine illustrates how ordinary moments have become central to their lives since becoming parents.
Even Sleep Has Become Baby-Centred
The couple also joked that their sons occupy their attention even when they are supposed to be resting.
“So the first and last thought is about the babies. Yes, I mean, even while sleeping, we are looking at the babies. Is the baby awake? Is it okay?” they said.
Their comments reflect the attentiveness that has become part of their new routine as first-time parents.
They added that they have never thought about themselves as much as they are now thinking about “the new individuals” who have entered their lives.
Parenthood Has Changed How They Think About Work
The arrival of their twin boys has also influenced how Divyanka and Vivek approach their professional lives.
The couple said they previously focused on finding meaningful and good work for themselves. Their priorities have now shifted toward making career choices that they feel will also benefit their children.
“We used to think that we should do something good in our work. Now we feel that whatever we do, it should be good for the babies,” they said.
The statement suggests that the couple’s approach to work is evolving alongside their responsibilities as parents.
For two actors with established television careers, balancing professional commitments with family life is likely to become an important consideration as their children grow.
