However, the congratulatory messages weren't restricted to the film. A source reveals, "Ash was looking stunning.

There was this natural glow on her face and she looked happy. Lots of guests jokingly asked if she was finally ready to give the good news.

To this Ash just blushed and coyly smiled." While all the guests and family members enjoyed drinks, Ash who enjoys a splash of wine occasionally strictly stayed away from any alcohol.

"The fact that she didn't even touch a glass increased the speculation whether she was expecting."
