Popular Indian comedian and television host Bharti Singh has welcomed her second child, a baby boy, with husband Haarsh Limbachiyaa. The birth followed a sudden medical emergency that occurred while she was at work, adding a dramatic twist to this personal milestone.
An Unexpected Turn During a Shoot
Bharti Singh was reportedly scheduled to film for the show 'Laughter Chefs' when her water broke unexpectedly. The incident forced an immediate halt to the shoot and a swift rush to the hospital. Soon after, she delivered a healthy baby boy. This joyful event adds another chapter to the life of a star whose journey to success is as compelling as her comedy.
From Rags to Riches: Bharti Singh's Early Struggle
Bharti Singh's story is one of remarkable resilience. Born on 3 July 1984 in Amritsar, Punjab, her life took a difficult turn early on. Her father passed away when she was just two years old, leaving her mother, Kamla Singh, to single-handedly raise three children.
The family faced severe financial hardship. To make ends meet, her mother worked cleaning homes and even scrubbed toilets. She would often bring back leftover food for her children. Bharti has openly shared memories of meals consisting of just roti and salt, and vegetables that were already stale.
Her siblings left school early to work in a blanket factory, and Bharti joined them in stitching blankets. In a poignant recollection, she once stated, "Main ₹60 ka bacha hoon," referring to the ₹60 fee a midwife charged to cut her umbilical cord—a sum her mother struggled to arrange alone.
Building a Comedy Empire and a ₹30 Crore Fortune
For Bharti, comedy began not as a dream but as a means of survival. Her talent was first spotted during college performances in Punjab by comedian Sudesh Lehri. Later, Kapil Sharma encouraged her to audition for The Great Indian Laughter Challenge, a move that catapulted her into the spotlight.
Her unique voice and impeccable timing made her a household name. She seamlessly transitioned from being a contestant to a mainstay on Indian television, appearing in shows like Comedy Circus, Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa, and hosting Dance Deewane, Hunarbaaz, and Sa Re Ga Ma Pa L'il Champs.
Her success extends beyond TV. She runs the YouTube channel 'Life of Limbachiyaas,' boasts nearly nine million Instagram followers, and commands lucrative brand deals and live shows. Today, Bharti Singh's estimated net worth is between ₹30 crore and ₹35 crore. She reportedly charges ₹8–12 lakh per episode, owns a Mumbai home worth around ₹6 crore, and possesses luxury cars.
As Bharti Singh embraces motherhood once again, her life story stands as a powerful testament to overcoming adversity through talent, hard work, and an indomitable spirit.
