In a move that delighted her fans, Sonakshi Sinha has playfully quashed swirling pregnancy rumors, which intensified after her latest public appearances. The ‘HeeraMandi’ star, recently seen at a high-profile gathering, triggered a wave of online speculation with a photo where she was seen with her hand on her stomach. This natural pose was quickly interpreted by many as a sign of pregnancy, leading to widespread conjecture about her and husband Zaheer Iqbal starting a family.
Ever the witty communicator, Sonakshi addressed the rumors with a humorous social media post. She posted a series of elegant photos of herself in a festive Diwali outfit, captioning them with a sarcastic jab at the media’s overactive imagination. “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,” she wrote.
She encouraged her followers to look at the final slide for her reaction before wishing them to “continue to dazzle this Diwali.” The concluding photo captured a candid moment of Sonakshi and Zaheer Iqbal sharing a hearty laugh, a clear indication of their amusement at the media’s narrative. Her clever reply was met with widespread admiration, with many praising her classy and bold response.
Sonakshi and Zaheer, who have been a couple for some time, married on June 23, 2024, in a private ceremony at their Mumbai residence. The wedding was a star-studded affair, attended by close friends and family, followed by a reception.
The couple, whose relationship reportedly began through mutual friends, previously shared the screen in the film ‘Double XL’ in 2022. Their social media is known for its lighthearted pranks, making them a popular and relatable couple online.
