Happiness abounds for Katrina Kaif as she’s expecting her first child with husband, Vicky Kaushal. The mushy couple is set to embark on parenthood within four years of marriage. Fans were thrilled as they shared the happy news on September 23, 2025, through a warm picture. Many of Vicky and Katrina’s B-town friends and colleagues congratulated them on social media with heartfelt messages. Amid the celebrity wishes, fans searched for reactions from Katrina’s past flames. Recently, a post about Salman Khan reacting to Katrina’s pregnancy has been going viral.
Did Salman Khan share Katrina Kaif’s pregnancy news on social media?
After Katrina Kaif and Vicky Kaushal‘s pregnancy announcement made headlines, a fan shared a post on X (formerly Twitter) that left the masses shocked. The post featured Katrina’s ex-boyfriend and Ek Tha Tiger co-star, Salman Khan, reposting her baby bump-flaunting picture, accompanied by a sweet caption. The actor allegedly added the hashtag ‘congratulations’ and a red heart emoji while sharing the post. The internet went into a frenzy over the unexpected occurrence, as although Katrina and Salman were on cordial terms at present, their public interactions were minimal.
The screenshot of Salman’s alleged post for Katrina and Vicky went viral immediately. As of September 24, 2025, the post has garnered over 8,000 likes, 99 comments, 225 reposts, and 358 bookmarks. Many were baffled by their inability to find it after searching for it on Instagram. A fan asked Elon Musk-owned AI chatbot, Grok, to check the authenticity of the post. Grok AI clarified the situation, mentioning,
“No, it doesn’t appear to be real. My checks show no such post on Salman Khan’s official Instagram, and there’s no news of him announcing a pregnancy or marriage in 2025. Likely a fabricated image.”
The fan who wanted to know if the post was credible shared that they resorted to Grok’s help because they didn’t own an Instagram account. The original poster replied to their curious comment with laughing emojis, indicating that the post was made in a jovial, light-hearted manner. His profile also includes ‘memes’ in the description, which explains his motive behind creating the fake screenshot of Salman Khan’s Instagram post. However, it gives rise to debates of meme ethics and what can and cannot be considered a joke.

Speculations regarding Katrina’s pregnancy have been circulating for quite a while now. Recently, her appearance at an event in a dress, with her hand placed right on her abdomen, fueled the rumours. Fans felt that she purposely tried to cover her belly so as not to attract attention to her pregnancy bump. And within days of discussions regarding the Jab Tak Hai Jaan actress being in her third trimester, she herself confirmed her pregnancy through a joint post with Vicky Kaushal.
The duo are over the moon as they shared an adorable Polaroid portrait of themselves adorably looking at her baby bump. The sweet post drew innumerable warm wishes from their friends and fans. Even Katrina’s ex-flame, Ranbir Kapoor’s wife, Alia Bhatt, gave the post a heart. Katrina and Vicky captioned the post with a heartfelt message, calling the pregnancy the ‘best chapter’ of their lives. The caption can be read as:
“On our way to start the best chapter of our lives with hearts full of joy and gratitude.”
