Radiant in Yellow: Deepika Padukone Shines Amid Pregnancy and Trolls, Bollywood Rallies in Support

Soon-to-be mom Deepika Padukone has delighted her fans with a series of radiant new photos, sharing her joy and glowing presence on social media. The Bollywood star began her Friday morning by posting a set of cheerful pictures on her Instagram story, wearing a sunny yellow dress and flashing her million-dollar smile. Fans were thrilled to see Deepika’s pregnancy glow, as she continues to embrace her journey into motherhood.

Deepika and her husband, actor Ranveer Singh, announced their pregnancy earlier this year through a heartfelt Instagram post. The couple, who have been together for six years before tying the knot on November 14, 2018, at Lake Como in Italy, are eagerly anticipating the arrival of their baby in September. Deepika has often expressed her and Ranveer’s love for children, mentioning they were “looking forward to the day when we will start our own family.”

Despite the excitement surrounding her pregnancy, Deepika has faced some distasteful trolling. She was recently spotted by paparazzi while stepping out to cast her vote during the Lok Sabha elections in Mumbai on May 20. Wearing a white shirt and denims, and twinning with Ranveer, Deepika was subjected to unwarranted negative comments from a section of netizens. However, Bollywood celebrities like Alia Bhatt, Pooja Bhatt, and Shruti Seth rallied in her support, liking a post that called out the trolls and asked them to behave.

In addition to her public appearances, visuals of Deepika promoting her skincare brand, 82°E, have also surfaced on social media. In one video, the actress is seen behind a store counter, playfully interacting with a POS machine and promoting her products with a big smile. This humorous and light-hearted act further endeared her to fans and showcased her unbothered attitude towards online negativity.

On the professional front, Deepika was last seen in the blockbuster film “Jawan” alongside Shah Rukh Khan. She is now set to star in Rohit Shetty’s highly anticipated “Singham Again” as Lady Singham. In a recent interview with Deadline, Deepika discussed her career choices and her decision not to pursue another Hollywood film after her role in “XXX: Return of Xander Cage” (2017). She reflected on the global acceptance of Indian cinema, stating, “I don’t think we’ve drastically changed anything in India about the way that we work or the kinds of stories that we tell. I think we’ve always had interesting stories to tell but I do think that what has changed is that the world has opened up to the idea of the East and to India in particular and I think that’s the change—realizing there is a world outside of America.”

Deepika’s latest photos and her candid moments with fans continue to highlight her charm and resilience. As she navigates her pregnancy and prepares for the arrival of her first child, her positive spirit and unwavering grace remain an inspiration to many. Her journey serves as a reminder that amidst the noise of social media and public scrutiny, staying true to oneself and focusing on the joys of life is what truly matters.
