Deepika Padukone REACTS To Post Calling Out Celebs Faking Pregnancy

Deepika Padukone has seemingly responded to the social media speculation surrounding her pregnancy by liking a post that criticised the practice of questioning women and accusing them of faking their pregnancies. The actor faced intense trolling during her first pregnancy, with some social media users questioning the authenticity of her baby bump. Deepika and Ranveer Singh welcomed their daughter Dua on September 8, 2024.

The couple announced earlier this year that they are expecting their second child. On September 8, 2026, the couple celebrated Dua’s second birthday by sharing a series of pictures from their maternity shoot. The photographs featured Deepika with Ranveer and their daughter, with the actor visibly flaunting her baby bump. Ranveer was also seen placing his hand on Deepika’s bump in some of the pictures.

Following the maternity shoot, content creator Arshia Moorjani shared a reel praising the pictures while addressing the earlier speculation around Deepika’s first pregnancy. Talking about the actress and her family, Moorjani said, “Baby Dua looks just like Ranveer Singh to me! They are copy and paste… I saw a lot of speculation about Deepika Padukone faking her pregnancy with her first baby, which is so crazy to me. The fact that we have normalised it as a society with celebrities is wild to me. Not every celebrity is faking their pregnancy!”

She further called out the practice of judging pregnant women based on their appearance. The creator added, “Deepika Padukone is not faking her pregnancy. She is clearly pregnant with baby number 2, so please let her have this moment. Stop normalising telling women with different body sizes that they are faking their pregnancies! This is such a beautiful moment in their lives. She looks stunning.”

Deepika’s decision to like the post has drawn attention online, with many interpreting it as her way of supporting the message and pushing back against the speculation she faced during her first pregnancy.
