While the rumour of Neha Kakkar’s pregnancy news had netizens upset, some just could not stop laughing over the prank the couple pulled and called it a 'blockbuster marketing technique' for the release of their new song.

On their new post, a user commented, "Hr chiz p gaana bna do (make song out of everything)." While another wrote, "Haa ab tumhare Ghar main Kuch bhi hon, sidha gaane release Kar Dena theek hai! (Now whatever happens in your home, you keep releasing songs)."

Another user commented, "Waah!! Chuna pro max tha ye toh (this was trickery pro max)."

However, some netizens are upset and the couple is slammed for using their pregnancy as a ‘publicity stunt’

Neha and Rohanpreet met in Chandigarh in August during the shoot of “Nehu Da Vyah” and reportedly fell in love. The two tied the knot in a traditional Sikh ceremony on 24 October 2020 after dating each other for a while.
