Fans revisit Deepika’s past public outings after pregnancy announcement
Soon after the announcement, social media users began revisiting Deepika’s recent outings, with many speculating that she may have already been pregnant during those appearances.
One moment that caught attention was her visit to Rishab Rikhiram Sharma’s concert in Mumbai on March 20. Deepika attended the event with Ranveer’s mother Anju Bhavnani and sister Ritika Bhavnani, dressed in a graceful Ajrakh kurta set.
One user wrote, “Mere ko laga tha she is pregnant, congratulations Dipveer” (I felt she was pregnant), while another added, “I told you already.” Several others said, “I noticed it back then,” and “Yup, I noticed it yesterday,” pointing to earlier appearances and campaigns. Some also commented, “I noticed it in the JioMart ad”, and “Oh!!! now we got it why she covered her dupatta”, while celebratory emojis flooded the section.
The curiosity didn’t stop there. In the days following the concert, Deepika was seen stepping out with Ranveer in relaxed, oversized outfits, including a loose T-shirt and baggy pants. These looks further fuelled speculation, with fans suggesting the signs were visible even then.
Some also revisited her campaign with JioMart, titled Time aur Paise Dono Bachaye, where she appeared in a red saree alongside Ranveer. According to a section of fans, she may have already been expecting during that shoot as well.
On the work front
On the professional front, Deepika is set to reunite with Shah Rukh Khan in King, directed by Siddharth Anand. The film also stars Suhana Khan, Rani Mukerji, Anil Kapoor, Jackie Shroff, Abhay Verma, Abhishek Bachchan, Arshad Warsi and Jaideep Ahlawat, and is slated for a theatrical release on December 24, 2026. She will also be seen in Raaka, directed by Atlee and co-starring Allu Arjun.
