On Friday evening, after Kareena Kapoor’s clip went viral, SCREEN exclusively learned that the pregnancy rumour was untrue. “She is not pregnant. The rumours are false,” confirmed the source.
Kareena Kapoor is a mother to two sons, Taimur, 9, and Jeh, 5, with Saif Ali Khan, whom she married on October 16, 2012. Kareena and the family faced intense scrutiny after she gave birth to Taimur, as they faced criticism for his name.
At The Indian Express’ Adda in 2023, Kareena recalled the “traumatic” time after Taimur’s birth and shared, “It was very difficult, but I think both Saif and me handled it with a lot of dignity because we never actually spoke, or said anything. We just believed in what we did and we just believed in naming our child just a beautiful name.”
After the new parents chose the name Taimur, they became the target of vicious trolling. “When we came up with the name… Saif actually said… He grew up with a neighbour friend, and he always really liked his name and his name was Taimur, so he said, ‘You know, if I have a son, he was my first friend. I’d like to name him Taimur’, and that’s exactly how Taimur was named, because he was Saif’s first friend when he was living in town here.”
