It might pay to have a quick glance at the documentation here [1].
It's important to know that relpages is *not* kept up-to-date every
time the relation size increases. It's probably most commonly going to
be updated by auto-analyze after the table has grown or changed enough
for an auto-analyze to trigger.

The actual answer to the question depends on what Otar wants to
include when counting the number of blocks. pg_table_size() will count
the TOAST table too. If that's what's required then Otar's original
query looks fine. If not, the table in [2] is likely going to yield
the answer. pg_relation_size() might be what's required.
