Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone starrer “Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani” which released in 2013 has turned 11 today (31 May) and it was a bit shocking for many when Ranbir and Deepika decided to come together for this movie after their breakup.
It was quite a rare moment in the industry when two ex-lovers decided to work together in a romantic movie and their chemistry as lovers in the movie made their fans go crazy.
They once again came together to work in a movie which was Imtiaz Ali directed Tamasha and during the promotions of the flick when Deepika was asked whether she still loves Ranbir, she said, “Of course I do. He is someone I have always loved and someone I will always be extremely possessive about and very protective about. When I read about him, when I see his work, good bad whatever it is, I have my own monologue that is going on in my head and which I do share with him.”
She further said, “I might even pick up the phone and talk to him immediately. There was a phase he was going through where I felt that his behaviour had changed a bit (I didn’t know it was intentional or had he become that person or it was misinterpreted). But it bothered me a lot. We are not in each other’s lives to know whether the change was permanent or it was completely fabricated. But the point is the things about him that were being reported, I felt that I had the right to pick up the phone on him and tell him that what was going on was not correct. Similarly with his film, the minute I see his work, I will tell him. Likewise, he will see my films and tell me what he liked and what he didn’t like.”
Similarly in an interview, when Ranbir was asked whether he still loves Deepika, he also accepted that he loves her but as a family, he said, “Yes, of course. The amount of love I have for Deepika is like family. It’s very warm, it’s about care, about being proud of her. The facet of love, care and respect has changed but changed for the better. It’s not your immature I love her kind of feeling. It’s mature and that’s come with age. Also, we have both positively moved on with our lives.”
As of now, Deepika is pregnant with her first child with Ranveer Singh and Ranbir Kapoor is married to Alia Bhatt and the couple has a daughter.
