While promoting Bad Newz, Vicky dismissed media reports about wife Katrina Kaif's pregnancy as "speculation", saying they will happily announce whenever they have "good news". "As far as the good news that you spoke about is concerned, we will be very happy to share it with you when we have it. But till then, there is no truth to that, there is only speculation which is coming from the media. So please, enjoy Bad Newz for now, we will share with you when there is time for good news," Kaushal said at a promotional event here.
When the host requested the media to not ask personal questions, the actor quipped, "There is a very good line in the picture, which is 'Don't get personal'."
