Deepika Padukone has often found herself at the centre of scrutiny over her appearance, and her first pregnancy was no exception. During that time, a section of social media users went as far as questioning whether her baby bump was real. Now, two years after welcoming her daughter Dua in September 2024, Deepika has given fans a glimpse of another maternity shoot, this time with her second child. The pictures also feature husband Ranveer Singh and their daughter, and have received an overwhelmingly warm response from fans.Amid the reactions, one social media creator highlighted the way pregnant women, particularly celebrities, are subjected to unnecessary scrutiny over their bodies. The post caught Deepika's attention and received support from the actor.Instagram content creator Arshia Moorjani shared a reel praising Deepika's new maternity pictures while also addressing the speculation surrounding her first pregnancy. She said on the reel, “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!”Arshia further called out the practice of questioning women's pregnancies based on their body types. 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 size that they are faking their pregnancies! This is such a beautiful moment in their lives. She looks stunning.”In the maternity shoot, Deepika posed alongside Ranveer and Dua. Ranveer was seen holding their daughter as the family smiled for the camera, while another picture showed him affectionately placing his hand on Deepika's baby bump. Dua, meanwhile, looked adorable as she stood between her parents in the family pictures.Ranveer also shared the photographs on Instagram, expressing his excitement about their growing family. His caption read, “Baby Dua and our hearts are getting bigger! Thank you for your blessings! 🧿🙏🏽 @deepikapadukone.”Earlier this year, Deepika and Ranveer had announced that they were expecting their second child. In their joint Instagram post, the couple shared a picture of Dua holding a pregnancy test displaying two pink lines, with both parents' hands gently placed around her. Deepika kept the caption simple, using only evil eye emojis.Deepika and Ranveer got married in an intimate ceremony in Italy in 2018 after dating for several years. They became parents for the first time when Dua was born in September 2024. With their second child on the way, the couple has now offered fans another glimpse into this new chapter of their lives.
