Bollywood is buzzing with excitement as Kiara Advani and Sidharth Malhotra announced that they are expecting their first child. While fans are overjoyed, the internet has found an amusing connection between Kiara’s pregnancy and a viral fashion theory—the ‘polka dot voodoo’ theory.
Is the Polka Dot Theory Real?
The offbeat theory is that when Bollywood actresses are pregnant, they tend to dress in polka-dot ensembles before actually announcing their pregnancy. Fans are sure there is enough ‘proof’ to validate the trend, and Anushka Sharma and Kareena Kapoor Khan are the prime examples.
Anushka, when she broke the news of her pregnancy in 2020, had worn a black polka dot dress, and Kareena, who was pregnant during her maternity period, too added polka dots to her wardrobe. It seems now Kiara Advani is the new celebrity doing this.
Kiara’s Polka Dot Dress Magic
Only two months back, Kiara had shared a festive selfie with Sidharth on Christmas Day in 2024, dressed in a trendy black polka dot top. The fashion-forward attire had an airy yet contoured drape and a tiny triangular cut-out at the front. Fans then had already started making guesses that she might be pregnant.
Now that the announcement has been made, social media users are certain that the ‘polka dot voodoo’ theory is still unbeaten.
Fan Reactions Go Viral
The internet is full of funny and enthusiastic reactions. One fan on X (formerly Twitter) said, “The polka dot theory is real bro? it always stays undefeated. Kiara and Sid are expecting soon . Another posted, “That polka dot dress meme is REAL!”. One Reddit user even said, “Wait, Kiara is wearing that infamous polka dot dress, my mind is going somewhere rn lol.”
What’s Next for Kiara?
At work, Kiara was recently seen in Game Changer with Ram Charan. She will next appear in Farhan Akhtar’s Don 3 with Ranveer Singh.
With Bollywood pregnancies and polka dot outfits apparently connected, is this a theory by coincidence, or does fashion actually foresee the future? Fans will be watching for the next celeb wearing polka dots!
