Kareena Kapoor Khan announced recently that she would be working throughout her pregnancy and does not intend to take a maternity break.
"I’m pregnant, not a corpse. And what maternity break? It’s the most normal thing on earth to produce a child. It is high time the media back off, and stop treating me any different than I ever was. Anybody who is bothered shouldn’t work with me… but my work goes on as is, like always," she said in an interview.
And keeping up with her word the gorgeous actress was up and about to shoot her first ad post her pregnancy announcement. And we must say that she glowed like never before.
Dressed in a monochrome dress, Kareena looked resplendent as she stepped out to shoot for the ad that is for Farhan Akhtar's ex-wife Adhuna's Bhabhani's company B:Blunt.
Kareena had last week lashed out at the media and said that she's fed-up with all the reports talking about her pregnancy.
"Stop making it a national casualty. We are in 2016, not in the 1800s. Probably, even at that time, people were way more civilised and normal than the way the media is behaving and speculating now,” she had said.
There were also rumours that Kareena and Saif had done a sex determination test in London and are going to have a baby boy, but the couple had vehemently denied the reports.
“The report is completely baseless and the couple strongly denies any such incident. There was no such discussion with any doctor in London and the report is purely a figment of someone’s imagination,” spokesperson of both the actors said in a statement.
Kareena currently has over 18 brand endorsement deals, and she is in no way planning to put them on hold. She feels that her brands will love her for what she is.
“I think my brands love me for what I stand for, what I represent, and my talent,” she said.
Kareena is indeed setting an example for women by embracing her pregnancy beautifully. Her decision to continue working during her pregnancy is commendable and we hope that she paves the path for other actresses who also want to do the same.
Kareena would also start shooting for the movie Veere di Wedding in August and would then be shooting for some magazine covers in October before she finally goes on maternity leave.
