Lara Dutta soon to be mom!!

Not only has she announced that she's expecting, rather she seems mighty-excited about it. 

In a recent film-based interview, Lara put all the speculations to an end. She also said that she and her Tennis-player better half, never denied the news but thought to disclose it only when the time felt right.

Ask her if this would mean that film's will struggle to get into her priority list, Lara is quick to retort that she would never stop doing what gives her immense happiness and something that she enjoys doing the most. Right now the actress is awaiting the release of Don 2.  

About the news, Lara happily tweeted: "Thank you so much for all ur wishes and prayers.Its an awesome time in life right now and Mahesh and I r both very excited abt the baby!:-)"

Abhishek Bachchan was one of the first to congratulate Lara and tweeted: "Paaji! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!! welcome on board."

The 33-year-old actress chirped back saying: "Thank you so much ab! You'll be sorted by the time our turn comes, will call for tips!!" 

For the records, Lara and Mahesh tied the knot in early February this year and have been living the happily-ever-after life, ever since!
