Earlier, Irfan already revealed the gender of their kid in a video released on May 18. The video shows their visit to a Dubai hospital on May 2 followed by a lively ‘gender reveal’ party held in Chennai.

Irfan pointed out in the video that such tests are illegal in India but are allowed in many other countries.

In the video, Irfan freely acknowledged his desire for a daughter as well as his overwhelming excitement upon learning the baby’s gender. The clip quickly garnered nearly 2 million views, while the vlog documenting their Dubai trip garnered over 1 million views. Later, the celebration has led to serious legal repercussions for Irfan.

The State Enforcement Officer and Director of Medical and Rural Health Services sent him a warning for breaking the Pre-Conception and Pre-Natal Diagnostic Techniques (PC-PNDT) Act. This Act strictly prohibits the determination and disclosure of an unborn baby’s gender in India. Additionally, the health department also requested the cyber wing of the police to ensure the removal of the controversial video from the internet.
