Polka dots. That was our cue. Sidharth Malhotra and Kiara Advani's pregnancy announcement feels very personal for many.

Their massive fandoms aside, their heavenly and still-viral wedding video is probably what set the stage.

As the two gear up to take on the biggest role of their lives as parents, we can't help but gush because we called the possibility of this, way back during Christmas season!

Christmas celebrations were a cool and cozy family affair as Kiara held hubby Sidharth in a bear hug in front of a Christmas tree. Kiara kept it chic in a draped polka dot maxi from Mango. Now a Sid-Kiara Instagram drop almost always steals the limelight for their undeniable chemistry. However, this one had people speaking about something entirely different — their first baby being on the way!

Now at the time, there were no evident signs or statements from any verifiable source. But for the internet, legends and trends rank high when it comes to credibility. And so yet again, comes up, the legend of the polka pregnancies. The polka dot dress Kiara wass wearing in the picture was rather similar to the one Anushka Sharma was wearing when she and Virat Kohli announced their first pregnancy to the world via their social media handles.

Interestingly the myth, if we may call it that, found itself further solidified when a pregnancy picture of Natasa Stankovic, then wife to cricketer Hardik Pandya, resurfaced, in which she too can be seen donning a polka dot dress. Hence started the legacy of the 'pregnancy dress' as it's being called.

Some comments under Sid and Kiara's Christmas post expressing the same read: “Kiara's dress told that they have some good news 😁”, “polka dots guyss 😍😍😍” and “I think shee is pregnant ❤️”.

Safe to say, this was a eureka moment on the part of the internet, with the couple announcing their first pregnancy in a matter of a few weeks.

Many congratulations to the couple!
