Saba Pataudi Dismisses Kareena Kapoor Pregnancy Rumours After Viral Gym Video
A video showed Kareena Kapoor Khan walking from a gym to her car.
Some people online guessed that she might be expecting another baby.
They based this guess on how she looked in the video.
A team member was holding an umbrella that partly blocked the photographers’ view.
Saba Pataudi said a camera angle or a bad hair day can change how someone looks.
She asked people not to make guesses about private matters.
A source close to Kareena also said that she is not pregnant.
Saba joked that she wished the baby news had instead been about her sister Soha Ali Khan having another child.
A viral video of Kareena Kapoor Khan leaving a Mumbai gym prompted speculation that she was pregnant.
Saba Pataudi said an unflattering camera angle or bad hair day should not lead to such assumptions.
A source close to Kareena told Hindustan Times that she is not pregnant and called the rumours false.
Saba urged social-media users to respect privacy, writing, “Live n let live” and “No speculation needed.”
Kareena and Saif Ali Khan have two sons, Taimur and Jehangir, known as Jeh.
