The director, who is currently busy with his much-anticipated project starring Icon Star Allu Arjun, announced that he and his wife Priya Mohan are expecting their second child.

Just like their first pregnancy announcement in 2022, the couple revealed the happy news through a beautiful photoshoot shared on social media. Expressing their joy, Atlee wrote, “Our home is about to get even cozier with the addition of our newest member! Yes! We are pregnant again ❤️ Need all your blessings, love and prayers 🥰.”

What caught many hearts was the sweet personal touch in his post. Along with mentioning himself, Priya and their son Meer, Atlee also included the names of their beloved pet dogs — Becky, Yuki, Chocki, Coffee and Goofy — setting adorable pet-parenting goals for fans.

The couple welcomed their first child, a baby boy, in 2023 and around the same time expanded their family by adopting their furry companions. After dating for nearly eight years, Atlee Mohan and Krishna Priya tied the knot in Chennai in 2014 and have since been celebrated as one of the most admired power couples in Tamil cinema.
