On The Cusp Of Motherhood, Deepika Padukone's Old Clip About 'Benching' In Relationship Resurfaces

Deepika-Ranveer Relationship: From being co-stars to dating in secret followed by a fairytale wedding and now on the brink of parenthood, DeepVeer is one of the most loved Bollywood couples. Recently, the actress’ old video surfaced in which she contradicted her statements on the kind of relationship she prefers. 

What did Deepika Padukone say about relationships?

In an old video, Deepika Padukone, talking about the relationship she does not prefer, said, “Putting somebody on standby mode or on hold and saying let's seen how it goes. You do your thing and I'll do mine and let's meet six months later, I feel there is no clarity of mind in that situation. It's a compromise and it's a matter of convenience. I would not like to be in a situation like that because I am someone who needs to be clear about where I am headed and what I'm doing."

Some years later, while appearing on a chat show with Ranveer Singh, she said otherwise, stating that “she wanted to be single as she had some difficult relationships and she didn't want to be attached or to be committed.” She further said that “she had fun but didn't commit until Ranveer proposed to her, and there was no commitment as such” between them.

When did Ranveer and Deepika Padukone meet?

They met on the sets of Sanjay Leela Bhansali directorial Goliyon ki Rasleela: Ramleela (2013), a retelling of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. Sparks flew as soon as they met each other on the first day of the film shoot.
