Actress Sonakshi Sinha has effectively diffused intense pregnancy rumors with a dose of her signature humor, following recent public appearances. The star, who was recently spotted at a high-profile event, sparked widespread online speculation after photos circulated showing her hand resting on her abdomen. This natural gesture was quickly interpreted by many as a sign that Sonakshi and her husband, Zaheer Iqbal, are expecting.
Instead of ignoring the gossip, Sonakshi chose to address it head-on with a witty social media post. Sharing a series of photos of her elegant Diwali attire, she sarcastically commented on the media’s interpretation. “World record holder for the longest pregnancy in human history (16 months and counting, according to her lovely and hyper-intelligent media), simply for posing with her hand around her midsection. Scroll to the last slide for a reaction and then continue to dazzle this Diwali,” she posted.
The pictures featured Sonakshi looking radiant in a traditional outfit, complete with intricate jewelry. The final slide of her post revealed a candid moment of Sonakshi and Zaheer Iqbal in fits of laughter, clearly amused by the persistent rumors. Her sharp and classy response quickly went viral, earning widespread praise from fans and colleagues who applauded her humorous yet direct approach.
Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal, who had been dating for a considerable period, tied the knot on June 23, 2024. Their wedding was an intimate affair at their Mumbai residence, attended by close family and friends, followed by a reception.
The couple, who allegedly met through mutual friends, also starred together in the 2022 film ‘Double XL.’ Known for their playful banter and pranks on social media, they are considered one of the most likable celebrity couples.
