Srha Asgr and her husband, Umer Murtaza, are giving parents everywhere a reason to laugh with their latest Instagram reel, perfectly capturing the highs, lows, and small victories of raising a child.
The short video opens with the couple seated on a bright red sofa, performing what they jokingly call the “Alhamdulillah cardio routine,” a playful gesture they repeat at every milestone in their child’s life, both big and small.
The reel begins with the classic parental relief of welcoming a newborn: “Bacha paida hogaya”, followed immediately by their signature Alhamdulillah gesture.
It then moves to the child’s first steps – “Bacha chalna shuru hogaya” – and continues through the everyday wins that feel monumental to parents: sleeping through the night (“Bachaa sougaya”), going off to school (“Bacha school chala gaya”), finishing a meal (“Bachay ne khana kha lea”), and completing homework (“Bachay ne homework kerlea”).
The ultimate moment of relief comes when the child spends the night at their grandmother’s home: “Bacha night stay kay lih Naani kay ghar chala gaya.”
The couple exchanges a look of calm, holding hands as if they’ve just completed a lifelong marathon, perfectly illustrating the endless cycle of parenting.
Through humour and relatability, the reel shows that parenthood is like signing up for a marathon with no finish line, no medals, and an ever-increasing number of hurdles.
The small joys –surviving lunch, homework, or a peaceful night – become victories worth celebrating. As Srha and Umer whisper, “Alhamdulillah, we survived another round… for now,” viewers are reminded of the universal parental experience: exhaustion mixed with blissful moments of peace.
Fans have been quick to praise the couple for their spot-on humor. One wrote, “Phr dosra bachaaa agaya”, while another commented, “Bachay ne diapers chordiya Alhumdulillahhhhhh.” Others shared their own parental reflections, including “Bacha palna shru k 30 sal mushkil hai buss phir sub asan hojata hai” and “AlhumdulLilah Bchy Ki qbz tot gai.”
The reel has struck a chord with parents across social media, blending comedy with everyday realities of raising a child, proving that sometimes the best way to survive parenthood is with laughter and a little gratitude.
