Neena Gupta has often defied age, but a recent viral video from Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna’s reception sparked wild rumors claiming the 66-year-old actress is pregnant. Netizens were quick to point out a supposed “baby bump,” turning the video into a massive topic of discussion across social media platforms.

Staying true to her witty nature, Neena addressed the buzz in an interview with ‘Bollywood Hungama’, jokingly saying, “This was the only thing left in my life—a real-life ‘Badhaai Ho’!” She quickly clarified that she is not pregnant, explaining that the thick fabric of the saree she wore that day created a heavy silhouette, leading to the misunderstanding. Embracing the public curiosity with humor, she added, “It’s interesting to see people discussing my pregnancy at this age; it feels like we are becoming a very progressive nation!”
