It was in December 2020 when Aditi Shirwaikar Malik and Mohit Malik had announced their pregnancy on social media and since then, the couple has been documenting their journey on their respective profiles. To announce the news of their pregnancy, Mohit posted a beautiful picture with Aditi and had written, "As I place my hand on you...I say thankyou... for choosing us! Thankyou lord for this beautiful awakening experience which we are through right now. Thankyou thankyou thankyou so happy to share this with everyone. As we grow from 2 to 3. It makes my belief even stronger that we are 1. Love #blessed #oneness #shukr #gratitude #grateful #blessed #newdawn #love."
Ever since the pandemic was announced in March 2020, it has been a tough time for everyone and with the surge in COVID-19 cases in April 2021, the situation has just gotten worse. Penning a note for their to-be born child, Aditi Shirwaikar Malik and Mohit Malik assured their soon-to-arrive little one that they will always protect him/her. Aditi posted a twinning in white picture with Mohit and captioned it as " Dear Baby, You are going to be coming into this world in an unseen time... difficult, challenging, Virus-centric. But remember that we will always be there for you and will always protect you. We are eagerly awaiting your arrival as you have changed our lives in the most beautiful way! Love, Mohit and Addite."
Ahead of their little one's arrival, Aditi Shirwaikar Malik and Mohit Malik captured the memories of their pregnancy phase with a maternity photoshoot. Aditi and Mohit posted a couple of pictures, in which the mommy-to-be radiated pregnancy glow and flaunted her baby bump in a yellow sweatshirt and black shorts and the to-be dad looked dapper in a green sweatshirt and beige lower. Sharing a picture with Mohit flaunting his abs as she flaunted her baby bump, Aditi wrote, " Mohit: I'd promised her, I'll always let her win, even during lockdown last year on who gets bigger faster! Addite: (rolling eyes emoji)". Mohit posted a picture with Aditi, in which they happily posed for the camera, and captioned it as "Mohit: #Tip101 To look in shape! Take a deep breath, pull your stomach in, hold it. Easy! Addite: I'm in shape! Ofcourse, round is a shape! #babyontheway #babyonboard @additemalik."

In February 2021, a traditional Maharashtrian godh bharai ceremony was hosted for the to-be mommy, Aditi Shirwaikar Malik. For the ritual, Aditi looked graceful in a green-coloured saree with floral jewellery and Mohit complemented her in a colour-coordinated kurta. Sharing a video of her godh bharai ceremony, Aditi had written, "I still get tears in my eyes and I know I will forever, this is a memory that will always make me realize what a huge blessing it is to be a woman, to feel each other's beats my little one and to have you in our lives! #AdditeKiGodhBharai @mohitmalik1113."
In an interview with The Times of India, Mohit Malik had recalled the moment when he was shooting and his wife, Aditi Shirwaikar Malik called him up to share the 'good news'. Mohit had said, "All she said was, 'The tests are positive.'" Upon hearing this, Mohit had panicked for a minute as he thought Aditi was talking about COVID-19 test results. However, she had clarified later and told him that they are going to be parents. Mohit had continued, "It took two days for the news to sink in. I kept asking her to check again and again." Aditi was thrilled to soon welcome a new member in the family and revealed that they're taking extra precautions.
