6 Actresses Who Worked While Expecting Kids

The big bahu of the Bachchan Khandaan was three-month pregnant while she shot for the role of the widow Radha in the super hit film Sholay. She was expecting her first child with husband and megastar Amitabh Bachchan. She gave birth to Shweta in March 1974.

The bong bombshell was pregnant for the second time when she shot for Karan Johar’s 2010 film We Are Family, which was the official remake of Hollywood movie Stepmom. She earlier had Nysa, her daughter with actor hubby Ajay Devgn, in 2003. This time around, she gave birth to her son in September 2010 and named him Yug.

Another F.R.I.E.N.D.S star in the list, Cox was married to David Arquette and was expecting her first child with him when the show was in its last leg. Coincidentally, Cox’s pregnancy could not have been incorporated in the show because her character Monica could not have had kids. Her pregnancy was covered by making her wear lose clothes and careful camera placements. Her daughter Coco was born in June 2004, a month after the show’s finale premiered.
