Kalki Koechlin is all set to welcome her first child with her Israeli boyfriend Guy Hershberg, the actress has revealed. Kalki, in a recent interview, said that she is five months pregnant with Hershberg, a classical pianist from Jerusalem.

The Sacred Games 2 actress added that she plans to go for a water birth.

The 35-year-old said that the baby will have a gender-neutral name. “I’ve chosen a name that works for either gender and that is representative of a gay person because I want my child to have that freedom of movement under the many umbrellas of gender that we have.”

The Margarita with a Straw actress also said that pregnancy has brought several changes. “I already feel the changes in the way I react to things. I am more deliberate, slower, more patient. When motherhood comes eventually, it brings with it a new consciousness to your sense of person.”

Kalki was previously married to director Anurag Kashyap. They got married in 2011 in Ooty and divorced in 2015.
