Sonakshi Sinha Addresses Pregnancy Rumors

Bollywood actress Sonakshi Sinha has recently found herself at the center of pregnancy rumors sparked by her appearance at a Mumbai event. Some social media users speculated that she was trying to conceal a baby bump while posing alongside her husband, Zaheer Iqbal. However, Sonakshi took the opportunity to humorously dismiss these rumors.

An Epic Comeback

On Thursday, Sonakshi took to Instagram to post pictures from a Diwali celebration at Ramesh Taurani’s house. While most photos captured her in a beautiful anarkali, the final image showed her and Zaheer sharing a hearty laugh. Sonakshi wrote in a witty caption, “World record holder for longest pregnancy in human history (16 months and counting according to our lovely and hyper-intelligent media) simply for posing with a hand around midsection.”

Social media was quick to respond. Celebs like Kusha Kapila and Shilpa Shirodkar filled the comments with laughing emojis. Fans also joined in, praising Sonakshi’s clever comeback.

Zaheer Iqbal’s Playful Remarks

At the same Diwali event, Zaheer also added fuel to the fire with a playful gesture. While posing for photos, he comically placed his hand on Sonakshi’s midriff and joked, “Sambhaal ke” (Be careful). This lighthearted moment further fueled the rumor mill, but he clarified that it was all in good fun.

About Their Relationship

Zaheer and Sonakshi have a history dating back seven years, first meeting at a party thrown by Salman Khan in 2013. They officially became a couple during the 2017 after-party of “Tubelight.” The couple tied the knot in a civil ceremony in 2024 at Sonakshi’s home, surrounded by close family and friends.

Since their wedding, the duo has been traveling extensively and often shares glimpses of their adventures on social media, delighting fans with every post.
