Kareena Kapoor Khan has once again found herself at the centre of pregnancy speculation after a recent video sparked discussion on social media. Addressing the rumours, her sister-in-law Saba Ali Khan dismissed the claims, urging people to avoid making assumptions and respect Kareena's privacy.
Saif Ali Khan's sister Saba has now reacted to the claims. Sharing the viral shot of Kareena, Saba wrote, "A bad angle... or a bad hair day! How can everyone assume another extreme!!"
She continued, "She walked out of an airport looking slick, classy and slim. And today, out of a gym - that's it! I've been convincing my sister to have a second child... wish that was true! She'll kill me for saying it! Live and let live, guys. Some things are left private. No speculation needed. With love and respect."
Saba's post comes after a video of Kareena went viral on social media, with users speculating about her appearance and wondering if she was pregnant. In the clip, Kareena was seen walking towards her car after what appeared to be a gym session, while a member of her team held an umbrella in front of her, partially blocking the paparazzi's view. The video led to online discussions about a possible baby bump.
For the uninitiated, Kareena and Saif Ali Khan, who married in October 2012, are parents to two sons, Taimur Ali Khan, born in 2016, and Jehangir Ali Khan, popularly known as Jeh, born in 2021.
This is not the first time Kareena has faced pregnancy speculation. In July 2022, during a family holiday in Europe with husband Saif Ali Khan and their sons, an angled photograph led to similar claims. Kareena responded to those rumours with humour on Instagram, writing, "It's the pasta and wine guys... calm down... I am not pregnant... uff... Saif says he has already contributed way too much to the population of our country... enjoy... KKK," with laughing emoticons.
On the work front, Kareena's upcoming theatrical release is Daayra, an investigative crime thriller scheduled to arrive in cinemas on September 18, 2026. Directed by National Award-winning filmmaker Meghna Gulzar, the film also stars Malayalam actor Prithviraj Sukumaran.
Apart from this, rumours are also rife that she has ended her feud with Sanjay Leela Bhansali and is set to star in his film.
