Actor Kareena Kapoor has laughed off pregnancy speculation amid rumours of a baby bump after a video of her leaving a gym went viral. Some social media users claimed the actor appeared to be pregnant, but the rumours were dismissed by her team and sister-in-law Saba Pataudi before Kareena appeared to address them herself.On Saturday, Kareena shared an image on her Instagram Story showing a man flaunting his bloated stomach, with the song Chocolate Lime Juice from Hum Aapke Hain Koun..!.

Turning to photographers, she said, "Paagal kar dete ho tum log (You people drive me crazy)."Earlier, Saba Pataudi had rejected the speculation and blamed it on a bad camera angle. She wrote, "A bad angle ... Or a bad hair day! How can everyone assume another extreme!! She walked out of an airport looking slick, classy and slim, and today out of a gym! That's it!! I've been convincing my sister to have a 2nd child ... wish that was true! She'll kill me for saying it! Live n let live guys. Some things are left private. No speculation needed. With love n respect (sic)." Recently, Saif Ali Khan and Kareena, along with their sons Taimur Ali Khan and Jehangir Ali Khan, went on a family holiday to celebrate Saif's birthday.
