Good for her, but honestly, the media frenzy around celebrity pregnancies is a bit much. There are more important things happening in the country. Still, congratulations to the couple.

Deepika and Ranveer are such a lovely couple. From Ram-Leela to now, it's been a joy to watch their journey. Dua is going to be a great big sister! God bless the family.

Bachcha paida karo, film bhi banao! 😄 True multitasking. But seriously, hope she is taking enough rest and not overexerting herself. Health comes first.
