Patralekhaa admitted to feeling ‘bothered’ by the speculation, particularly when her appearance, such as looking bloated, leads to unwarranted speculation about her expecting a child. “When I look bloated in my belly, I am pregnant,” she stated. This comment highlights the unrealistic beauty standards imposed on celebrities and the pressure to conform to these expectations.

I am like, what is this? They have a problem with what you wear, what you don’t wear or whether your hair is done properly or not. I guess that is what it comes with.

Patralekhaa’s remarks shed light on the broader issue of public scrutiny and the criticism that celebrities face for their appearance or choices. She added, “I am like, what is this? They have a problem with what you wear, what you don’t wear or whether your hair is done properly or not. I guess that is what it comes with.” This highlights the intrusive nature of media attention and the toll it can take on celebrities’ mental health.

Patralekhaa and Rajkummar Rao have previously worked together in the critically acclaimed film ‘Citylights’ and the web series ‘Bose: Dead/Alive.’ Their relationship has been a source of interest for fans and media alike, and their personal lives often attract significant attention.

Meanwhile, Rajkummar Rao is enjoying the success of his latest film, ‘Stree 2,’ which has received positive reviews since its release on August 15. The film, directed by Amar Kaushik, is a sequel to the 2018 hit ‘Stree.’ It continues the eerie narrative set in the town of Chanderi, now facing a new threat from a malevolent spirit named Sarkata. Rajkummar reprises his role alongside Shraddha Kapoor, who also returns for the sequel.

The film features a notable surprise cameo by Varun Dhawan as Bhediya, adding to its appeal. Patralekhaa will soon be seen in ‘IC814 The Khandahar Hijack.’ It is a series, which revolves around the Indian Airlines flight that was hijacked on Dec 24, 1999, en route Kathmandu-Delhi, diverting to Kandahar under Taliban control.

Overall, Patralekhaa’s comments on pregnancy rumors serve as a reminder of the consequences of media speculation on celebrities’ mental health and the importance of respecting their boundaries.
