Amid this, a viral image claiming that the actress made her Met Gala 2026 debut in a champagne off-shoulder gown is circulating widely on social media.

The Met Gala 2026 itself featured global celebrities from Hollywood, Bollywood, K-pop, sports, and fashion, but Katrina Kaif was not among the attendees.
Katrina married in a royal wedding at the Six Senses Resort, Fort Barwara in Sawai Madhopur, Rajasthan in 2021.
The couple named their son Vihaan, a name that holds a connection to Vicky's character Major Vihaan Singh Shergill in Aditya Dhar’s Uri: The Surgical Strike.
On the work front, Katrina was last seen in the 2024 film Merry Christmas, while Vicky last appeared in the period drama Chhaava-one of the highest-earning films of 2025.
