While denying the rumour, Madhuri Dixit acknowledged that filming the Sanjay Leela Bhansali directorial was physically demanding. At the time, she was balancing her personal life in the USA with her professional commitments in India after marrying Dr Shriram Nene in 1999

A recent rumour surrounding actress Madhuri Dixit Nene's iconic Dola Re Dola performance in Devdas sparked considerable debate online. The speculation began after Rubina Khan, a former associate of legendary choreographer Saroj Khan, suggested that the actress was four months pregnant while filming the song. Madhuri has now responded to the claim and firmly set the record straight.

Speaking to SCREEN, the actress laughed off the claim and pointed to a simple timeline that contradicts the speculation. "Arin is born in 2003. So, you do the math."

Madhuri's elder son, Arin Nene, was born on March 17, 2003. However, Devdas had already released in theatres on July 12, 2002, after premiering at the Cannes Film Festival in May that year, making the pregnancy claim impossible according to the timeline.

While denying the rumour, Madhuri acknowledged that filming the Sanjay Leela Bhansali directorial was physically demanding. At the time, she was balancing her personal life in the USA with her professional commitments in India after marrying Dr Shriram Nene in 1999.
