Actor Alia Bhatt, who thanked her followers on Instagram on Tuesday for all the wishes for her pregnancy announcement, shared a screenshot of a publication that suggested that Alia’s husband Ranbir Kapoor would be picking her up from London after she wraps her shoot for Heart of Stone.

Alia shared a message on Instagram that read, “Meanwhile in some people’s heads we still live in some patriarchal world.. fyi. (sic).” It further read, “Nothing has gotten delayed!! No one needs to PICK anyone up I am a woman not a parcel!!! I do not need to REST at all but good to know you’ll have a doctor’s certification as well :)”.
