Deepika Padukone has once again shown that actions speak louder than words. The Bollywood star used a simple social media gesture to hit back at trolls who earlier questioned her pregnancy. She liked a post that strongly criticized people who spread rumours about women faking their pregnancies.
The actor’s reaction comes just one day after she shared beautiful maternity shoot pictures with her husband Ranveer Singh and daughter Dua Padukone Singh. The family photos were shared on September 8, 2026, which marked Dua’s second birthday.
The Post That Got Deepika’s Support
Content creator Arshia Moorjani posted a reel on Instagram praising Deepika’s maternity shoot pictures. In the video, she also called out the ugly speculation that surrounded Deepika during her first pregnancy.
Moorjani expressed her shock at how society has made it normal to question women’s pregnancies. She 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!”
The content creator then made it very clear that Deepika is indeed pregnant. She 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 showed her agreement by liking the reel. This simple action sent a strong message to those who had doubted her before.
The Trolls Deepika Faced Earlier
This is not the first time Deepika has dealt with such nonsense. During her first pregnancy in 2024, many social media users called her baby bump fake. The trolling got so bad that other actors like Alia Bhatt and Shruti Seth came forward to support her.
The criticism reached its peak when Deepika went out to vote in the Mumbai Lok Sabha Election on May 20, 2024. Trolls made nasty comments about her baby bump at that time.
Her husband Ranveer Singh also stood up for her back then. He shared a picture of Deepika and wrote a comment targeting trolls: “Buri nazar wale tera moonh kala” along with an evil-eye emoji.
The Beautiful Maternity Shoot Pictures
Deepika and Ranveer shared their maternity shoot pictures on Dua’s second birthday. In the photos, Deepika proudly showed her baby bump while Ranveer held their daughter Dua. One picture captured Ranveer touching Deepika’s baby bump.
Ranveer shared the pictures on Instagram with a sweet caption:
“Baby Dua and our hearts are getting bigger! Thank you for your blessings! @deepikapadukone”
Fans flooded the comments with love. Ranveer’s Dhurandhar co-actor Sara Arjun wrote, “The most adorable family…towchwood”. Another fan commented, “MY HEART SHALL EXPLODE,” while someone else wrote, “Carrying cuteness of Deepika”.
The Pregnancy Announcement
Deepika and Ranveer announced their second pregnancy in April 2026. They shared a creative picture on Instagram where their daughter Dua held a pregnancy test showing two pink lines. Both parents’ hands could be seen gently holding their daughter. Deepika captioned the post with only evil eye emojis.
The couple got married in Italy in 2018 after dating for several years. They welcomed their first child Dua on September 8, 2024. Now, they are getting ready to welcome their second child.
