Anushka Sharma, who married Indian cricketer Virat Kohli earlier this year, recently reacted to rumours about her pregnancy. In an interview with a leading media organisation, she said, “That (spreading rumours) is something people will do anyway. It’s completely unnecessary and silly as you ultimately can’t hide such a thing. You can hide a marriage but not pregnancy. People can write nonsense but they will only look foolish after four months as you also need to see it.”

Busy with the promotions of her upcoming film Zero, the 30-year-old added, “I feel every female actor goes through it, so people marry you off even before you are hitched and make you a mother before you are pregnant. I don’t pay attention to it, and just laugh these things off. When I read about such stuff, I think, ‘where do such absurd things come from?’ Right now, I’m literally working round-the-clock.”

The film also stars Shah Rukh Khan and Katrina Kaif.
