Katrina Kaif and Vicky Kaushal have officially announced that they are expecting their first child, revealing the news on Instagram with photographs showing Kaif visibly pregnant.
While the actors have chosen not to disclose a due date, media reports suggest Kaif is in her third trimester, with delivery expected in mid to late October. The announcement comes nearly four years after their wedding in December 2021, an intimate ceremony at the Six Senses Fort Barwara in Sawai Madhopur, Rajasthan. Their wedding, styled in Sabyasachi Mukherjee couture, was among the most talked-about Bollywood unions of recent years.
The news arrives in the wake of a baby boom among Bollywood’s power couples. Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor welcomed their daughter, Raha Kapoor, in November 2022. Fans are already drawing parallels, with excitement building around Kaif and Kaushal’s next chapter.
Although the two have yet to appear in a major film together, both actors boast successful careers. Kaif has been one of Bollywood’s most bankable stars for more than a decade, with blockbusters such as Tiger Zinda Hai (2017), Dhoom 3 (2013), Ek Tha Tiger (2012), Bang Bang! (2014), Bharat (2019) and Sooryavanshi (2021). Kaushal, meanwhile, has carved out a reputation for versatility and critical acclaim. His recent films include Chhaava (2025), Sam Bahadur (2023) and Zara Hatke Zara Bachke (2023), alongside box-office hits such as Dunki (2023), Uri: The Surgical Strike (2019) and Raazi (2018).
For fans and the film industry alike, the announcement marks more than a personal milestone – it’s another chapter in the evolving story of Bollywood’s most-watched celebrity families.
