Sonakshi Sinha Sparks Pregnancy Rumours, AVOIDS Paps As She and Zaheer Iqbal Exit Hospital | Watch

Newly married Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal have sparked baby rumours after they visited a hospital in Mumbai on Friday. Sonakshi has been facing immense scrutiny for her inter-faith wedding with Zaheer. The couple opted for a civil marriage which took place on June 23. Days after their wedding, rumours about the couple expecting their first baby have flooded the internet.

In a video, shared by Instant Bollywood, Sonakshi and Zaheer’s white-coloured Mercedes was photographed exiting Kokilaben hospital in Mumbai. The portal claimed the newlyweds were present in the car, but avoided posing for the paparazzi.

Soon after, netizens began speculating if Sonakshi was pregnant with her first child, citing example of Alia Bhatt who announced her pregnancy shortly after her wedding to Ranbir Kapoor. One user wrote, “Medical check-up, even if she’s pregnant, it’s good news.” Another one said, “Baby is coming.” “Is she pregnant?” A third user asked.

Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal got married at the actress’ Bandra home with their families and close friends in attendance. The couple dated for seven years before taking their relationship to the next level. Days after their intimate wedding ceremony, a Reddit user dug up an old photo of Sonakshi flaunting a huge diamond rock on her ring finger. The picture also featured a man posing along with the actress but is cropped from the frame.

The particular photo was originally shared by Sonakshi on her Instagram account on May 8, 2022. However, at the time, many thought it was a promotional campaign for a jewellery brand. But now, fans are convinced that she and Zaheer got secretly engaged two years ago and the photo was indeed from their engagement as Sonakshi was wearing the same ring on her wedding photos as well.

Meanwhile, veteran actor-turned-politician Shatrughan Sinha lashed out at those protesting against his daughter Sonakshi’s inter-faith wedding with Zaheer Iqbal and calling it “love jihad”.

“A wedding is a very personal decision between two people; no one has the right to interfere or comment. To all the protestors I say – go, get a life. Do something useful with your life. Aur kucch nahi kehna (I have nothing else to say),” the veteran actor told Times Now.
