Kalki Koechlin crooning Bengali lullaby to Sappho is cuteness overloaded, celebs awestruck

With husband Guy Hershberg being a musician, it seems his skills are spilling over to Kalki Koechlin. The actor has taken a particular liking to playing the ukulele, something she started learning when she was pregnant, only to play lullabies to her baby. After welcoming her daughter Sappho, the Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara star seems to have aced the instrument, if her latest post is anything to go by.

While children were sharing heartwarming posts for their moms on Mother’s Day, Kalki had something for her child. She played the ukulele while crooning a Bengali lullaby Ghoom Paranir for the little one. Though Sappho’s face is not fully visible, the best part of the video is when the child gets all excited with the music and makes sounds and gestures, bringing a big smile on her mother's face.

Here’s the video:

Started learning the uke when I was pregnant to play songs for my baby. It's worked out well, Sappho either gets excited or falls asleep to them. This African lullaby was one of the first songs I learnt from an album called Songs of the Baobab. If anyone knows what the lyrics mean let me know! #mamadiaries #ukulele #sappho #covidtimes
