Sonakshi Sinha has once again addressed the pregnancy rumours, but this time, with a dose of humour and a screenshot on her social media. On July 4, 2025, Sonakshi shared a screenshot of her WhatsApp conversation with husband Zaheer Iqbal, blaming him for the speculation surrounding her weight gain and supposed pregnancy.The chat that sparked laughterIn the screenshot posted to her social media story, Sonakshi revealed a late-night exchange with Zaheer, whom she affectionately saved in her contacts as “BRAT.” The conversation began with Zaheer asking, “Hungry?” to which Sonakshi replied, “Not at all. Stop feeding me.” When Zaheer teased, “I thought holiday had started,” Sonakshi retorted, “I literally just ate dinner in front of you, stop it.” The chat ended with a sweet exchange of “I love you” and “I love you more.”Sonakshi captioned the post:”The reason why everyone thinks I’m preggos. Stop it @iamzahero.”Her lighthearted jab at her husband’s feeding habits struck a chord with fans, many of whom praised her for addressing the rumours with wit and warmth.A pattern of speculationSince her wedding to Zaheer Iqbal on June 23, 2024, Sonakshi has faced repeated speculation about her pregnancy. While she has previously denied the rumours in interviews and cryptic posts, this marks the first time she’s publicly linked the chatter to her husband’s doting behaviour. In a recent interview with NDTV, Sonakshi said, “I have found a way of shutting out the noise. I live a very happy life off-screen when I am not at work, and I am okay and peaceful, so when I am at work and I have to deal with such things, I just end up dealing with it better.”What’s next for Sonakshi?Sonakshi is getting ready for the release of her upcoming psychological thriller ‘Nikita Roy,’ directed by her brother Kussh Sinha. The film, which also stars Arjun Rampal and Paresh Rawal, is slated to hit theatres on July 18, 2025.
