Jankee Parekh's Emotional Donation Journey to the Milk Bank

Jankee Parekh, the wife of actor Nakuul Mehta, recently spilled something really emotional on social media. She shared about a big gesture she made. She donated ninety packets of her stored breast milk to a milk bank. For babies in the NICU.
It wasn’t just a simple announcement. It felt like the start of something huge. She called it her “donation journey.” She wrote about the sheer weight of emotion she felt handing that milk over. It was overwhelming. She admitted she cried, on and off, while doing it.
“Yesterday,” she posted, “I gave away ninety packets of my stored breast milk. It was my first donation to the milk bank. I honestly wasn’t ready for how emotional that would make me feel. I had these really mixed feelings, crying all day.”
She talked about the process, the months of it all. Since Rumi was born, she’d been pumping every single day. Multiple times. Half asleep, exhausted. Just one more session. Bag after bag. Labeling. Storing. Making space. It felt like so much effort.
And somewhere in all that routine, she thought maybe her baby would need it someday.
Then she shifted to her daughter. Rumi is nine months old now. She’s still feeding her directly, happily. But she’s also enjoying solids now. Jankee wrote that there was a point, a time, when she just knew it was time.
She reflected on the milk bags themselves. They held so much more than just milk. For her, it was discipline. It was effort. It was love. Everything her body had been through these past months. It wasn't just a physical act. It was everything.
She felt this surge of empathy for the babies waiting. She wrote about how incredible it is. “Women’s bodies are just wild,” she said. “We can create nourishment not just for our own babies, but for other babies too. It’s kind of incredible.”
The pictures she shared were striking. One showed her carefully packing all ninety packets into a cold container box. And she was sobbing. Her heart just seemed to break open while she packed it. Another picture showed her kissing Rumi.
The reaction from others was immediate. Television celebrities flooded the comments. Actress Dhamidrashti commented, “Sooooo proud of u mama.” Additi Gupta wrote, “That’s so amazing love.” Even Nakuul Mehta, her husband, commented simply, “I love you.”
It just felt like a moment of raw, exposed vulnerability. It wasn't just about the milk. It was about the whole journey of motherhood, and giving something away.
Nakuul Mehta and Jankee tied the knot back in 2012. They had their son, Sufi, in 2021. And then Rumi arrived in 2025. Parenthood, it just keeps happening.
They talk about setting boundaries with love. Nakuul and Jankee have been speaking about that. It’s a different kind of space they’re trying to build. A space where they can just be themselves, amidst all this life stuff.
