Happy, happy news for the Pataudi and Kapoor clans! Though it’s not yet confirmed, news is that the effervescent Kareena Kapoor is expecting her first child. When a journalist got in touch with her to know whether it’s true, she did not say ‘no’; instead in her trademark endearing style replied she’s looking forward to it and the media will come to know at the right time.

Obviously, the reference to the ‘right time’ indicates she and her hubby Saif Ali Khan will make it public at a time when she will start wearing big dresses. Some in the film business might say: the actress is finally going to deliver the goods.
