Sonakshi husband Zaheer surprises on the pregnancy question

For long rumours have been spreading about Sonakshi's pregnancy. In the midst of all this, Sonakshi's husband Zaheer Iqbal came up with a surprising act.

During a round of photo ops, Zaheer cheekily placed his hand on Sonakshi’s midriff as if confirming the speculation, prompting her to let out a surprised “Zaheer!” before both of them burst into laughter at Ramesh Taurani’s Diwali celebration in Mumbai.

Moments earlier, as the pair approached photographers, Zaheer called out “Sambhaal ke (Be careful)”, a playful nudge that made Sonakshi pause, then giggle and lightly tap him. Before leaving the scene, Zaheer made sure to clarify the stunt to waiting paparazzi: “Mazak kar rahe hain (we’re joking),” he said, underlining that there was no serious intent behind the tease.

Sonakshi is starring in Sudheer Babu's Jatadhara which is releasing on 14 November. The film also features Shilpa Shirodkar in an important role.
