Back in February this year, Ileana announced her second pregnancy with a special Instagram post.

The ‘Rustam’ actress took to the stories section of her Instagram handle and dropped a picture of her midnight cravings.

She shared a still of her puffcorn snacks and antacid chews, along with the time-stamp of “12:43 am”. “Tell me you’re pregnant without telling me you’re pregnant..”, Ileana captioned the post.

After tying the knot in 2023, Ileana made her first pregnancy announcement in April 2023. Posting a picture of a onesie on her IG, she wrote, “Coming soon. Can’t wait to meet you my little darling.”

Earlier this month, Ileana revealed that the makers of “Raid 2” had offered her the movie, however, the schedule could not be worked out. During a question and answer session, a user shared that they missed her in “Raid 2”, and in the movies in general.

To this, Ileana reacted, “I miss working in movies too and I would have loved to be a part of Raid 2. Raid was a special film but Malini was such a special character to play and working with my director Raj Kumar Gupta was a wonderful experience as was working with Ajay again.”
