Fans were overjoyed when Bollywood actors Katrina Kaif and Vicky Kaushal revealed in September that they were expecting their first child. The soon-to-be parents, who are known for keeping their private lives private, were recently at the focus of controversy after images of Katrina taken from her balcony went viral online, infuriating admirers. Actor Sonakshi Sinha also denounced the media portal in question for violating people's privacy.
A media source posted images of the soon-to-be mother sitting on her Mumbai home's balcony on Friday morning. The portal wrote, "Exclusive: Katrina Kaif steps out on her balcony as she nears her delivery date," as a caption for the photo. Social media users were incensed by the images, and many criticised the newspaper for acting unethically.

In the comments area, Bollywood actress Sonakshi Sinha vehemently expressed her disdain, writing, "What is wrong with you? Taking an unauthorised picture of a woman in her own house and posting it online? You are all crooks, nothing less. Disgraceful. After the outcry, the post was later removed.
Sonakshi was praised by fans for speaking up. "I'm glad someone said it," one fan wrote. "It's great of her to call them out so boldly and strongly," another person wrote. This is exactly where she is. "It's very kind of her to call them out," a third user commented. Much needed. "So true, Sona, this is pathetic," said another commenter.

Regarding the announcement of Katrina Kaif and Vicky Kaushal's pregnancy
In September, Katrina and Vicky posted a sweet photo of themselves on Instagram, showing Katrina holding her growing baby bump. "On our way to start the best chapter of our lives with hearts full of joy and gratitude," the pair wrote with the photo.
After a brief courtship, Katrina and Vicky were married in 2021 in a royal wedding at the Six Senses Resort, Fort Barwara in Sawai Madhopur, Rajasthan. Fans still hope to see the couple together on screen, even if they have never done so together.
